15945N/AThe Character Map application enables you to select characters from a
15945N/Acharacter table, then combine the characters into a text string with standard
15945N/Acharacters. You can insert the text string that you create into other applications,
15945N/ACharacter Map provides accented characters, mathematical symbols, special
15945N/Asymbols, and punctuation marks. Many of the characters are not available on
15945N/ANote: The gucharmap application also provides a library called libgucharmap.
