<p><strong>Phonetic Substitution</strong></p>

<p>Although the character cannot currently be typed into a computer, wikipedia notes that one may use a phonetic substitution. I doubt that most people would recognise this 58 stroke original character in any case but at least this may be a usable substitute.</p>

<p>Alternatively, can you write the character by strokes (that the pinyin input recognizes it and that the character can be found among all the other stored characters)?</p>

Something I find interesting is on wiki it says "biáng" (2nd tone) but on [百度百科](http://baike.baidu.com/view/111654.htm) it says "biàng" (4th tone). And what I heard was biàng. Hmm, I don't know who is correct.

Alternatively, can you write the character by strokes (that the pinyin input recognizes it and that the character can be found among all the other stored characters)?
