- Help on !Chars
- --------------
-
- This application displays the character set in a window. The user can click
- SELECT on a character to enter that character as if from the keyboard.
- Different "fancy fonts" can be selected with the menu: unlike the default
- display, only the characters in the font will be shown. The top row of
- characters, shown in inverse video with the System Font only, correspond to
- control characters (eg clicking on the inverse video L is the same as typing
- ctrl-L ie character 12).
-
- An extra facility is provided for entering characters into a menu item. Because
- clicking in another window would close any existing menu tree, !Chars allows
- you to press the Shift key while the pointer is over a character in its window,
- which has the same effect as clicking SELECT on the character, but does not
- close any menus.
