Copy extended characters

[Alan]

I'm looking for something short & sweet that can copy the non-keyboard
characters (128-255) to the clipboard. I think I've seen in the past,
some sort of popup window, displaying similar to the Windows character
map, where you could just click a symbol, then paste into your text
application. It might have been a tray app or activated by hoykey. Any
ideas?

thanks

Wouldn't MS's Charmap work?

Start>Run
charmap <ENTER>

If this don't work, you could always use the ALT key while pressing numbers
on the keypad (right of keyboard NOT across the top of the letters). For
example, I've memorised the character ¢ is done by pressing and holding ALT
while on the numpad press the numbers 155. © is done by the numbers 0169
Etc. (usually there only need to be 3 numbrs to make the 255 char code, but
Windows changes that somehow).

Good Luck

Not that either Although it looks quite good, it does seem to display
a "map", it would seem that characters aren't copyable from it, which is
what I am after:

"The 'Char Table' option on the AllChars help screen shows the available
characters. With the popup menu you can change the font and character
set, showing the characters in different fonts and character sets. "

Thanks, but that's what I'm doing at the moment.
I was really after that little popup job

I believe you want "Character Map Pro." Google it for several download
sites.

You can also use the macro facility in AllChars to make any character easily
available.
