Overview

What is UnicodeInput?

UnicodeInput : Seamlessly enter special characters into any application by writing its Unicode into this straightforward tool that runs in the systray

In depth

A closer look at UnicodeInput

Special characters are often necessary when writing text documents, whether you're looking for French-specific symbols, trying to insert the copyright symbol, or something else.Instead of spending a lot of time browsing the character map, there's a simpler solution: you can find the Unicode of all characters on the web, then copy and paste it into UnicodeInput to immediately send it the application you're writing in, whether it's Microsoft Word, Windows Notepad or something else.

Easily insert Unicode into any program

This is an old program initially tested on Windows XP. However, our tests have shown that it works smoothly on Windows 10. It doesn't require installation, which means that you can keep it stored in your collection of portable software and run it whenever you need to insert Unicode characters into your documents.Once launched, it creates an icon in the systray and runs in the background without interrupting you with any messages. To bring up the main window to the screen and insert Unicode, you just have to trigger Alt and the plus sign on the numpad. The last sent code is remembered.

Simple and straightforward app for inserting Unicode into any program

Unfortunately, this means that it cannot be used on keyboards without numpad. After pasting the Unicode here, you can press the "Send" button to immediately paste it in the window that was active before deploying UnicodeInput. The systray icon doesn't have a menu for exiting the tool. To do this, you have to bring up the main window again and close it.The program is free for personal and commercial use. However, the chance for UnicodeInput to receive any further updates is low, especially when taking into account its straightforward functionality. Unfortunately, there is no option implemented for keeping the window on screen after inserting Unicode, as it simply disappears afterward.
