Summary

Instructions to set up OSX's text replacement to show Ð:

Go to Settings > Language & Region. Click Keyboard Preferences button at the bottom of the screen. Click the "Text" tab of the Window that pops up. Click the plus (+) sign to add a new replacement. In the "Replace" column, type $D$ or the phrase you chose above. In the "With" column, copy and paste this: Ð Close out. This should take care of basic apps like TextEdit and others. You just need to type $D$ or your phrase, then hit space, it should replace it, although it can be a little slow. :) NOTE (UPDATE): For older OSX versions, you must enable text replacement on a per application basis. This is dumb, so instead, run this command in termina to enable it in all apps that support apple text replacement, then restart your apps and it should work:

defaults write -g WebAutomaticTextReplacementEnabled -bool true

Instructions to set up Google Chrome's text replacement to show Ð:

Close all your Chrome tabs. Install Popchrom from here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/popchrom/iinhokidgfoomcighckbjmlcndbjmomp?hl=en Once installed, go to Tools > Extensions Scroll down until you see Popchrome, click Options. Once in the Popchrom options, you can delete all the default replacements. Create a new replacement with (or your chosen phrase) as the abbreviation and Ð as the Expand to... Click save. Voila. Now you should be able to use your phrase in text boxes in Chrome, press Ctrl + Space on any website and it will be replaced when you hit space afterwards. Note that this will not work in other extensions or in the Chrome search box, only in website text fields so that you can post in /r/dogecoin :) I'd love to see proper text replacement in Chrome (or if someone could implement the Apple method)!

Hello Shibes,To type the Dogecoin symbol on a Mac (Ð, an Icelanding uppercase letter called ) is way harder than it should be, but can be done using a combination of Mac's built in text replacement and a Chrome Extension called Popchrom.The first thing you'll need to do is choose a phrase that you want to type which will be replaced by the Doge symbol. I chose $D$ because you can hold down shift throughout the combination and it isn't likely to conflict with anything else. Feel free to choose whatever you like.some apps do not follow the built in Apple method of doing text replacements. This is a pain, but usually you can make it work. Word, for example, has their own text replacement that I am not going to cover here.Since Chrome unfortunately does not listen to the Apple way of doing text replacement, and does not have its own text replacement built in, we're forced to install a Chrome Extension called Popchrom. It is a little finicky so make sure to follow all the instructions carefully.wow. So keyboard. Much typing.
