I used to have an application called Key Finder... I have had the app.
since my old 68k running on 7.1... The purpose of the app. was to
convert ASCII characters to keyboard entries and combinations to match

<shift+option+k> gave an apple symbol (*)...
If these do not show up properly in the parentheses try it out...
The app. gave tons of these to fit most fonts.
Any one know what i am talking about...?
Any one know where to find it... (Key Finder)
I found an app w/ the same name downloaded the file w/ no success,
contacted the author, who informed me that the app. was made for OS X
and that is why i only got files and no app...
Help anyone...

I use key caps and the biblical method on my 8.6 machine.
On http://www.pure-mac.com/font.html there is a link to FontBuddy 1.9
which will give you the keystrokes for characters as well.

I hope that isn't true of these groups. I know I try to be as helpful as I
can, but I also realize that I come off as condescending, rude, and sometimes
stupid, so I try to watch myself. Hope the application works out for you.

I did not like the application much my "KeyFinder" listed all the characters in
a small box w/ grid clicking on the character would display the correct sequence
much easier than scrolling thorough the characters one by one... oh well...

As far as... Oh yea being condescending, rude or otherwise, personally i would
rather have input any form available... as for stupid do not put yourself
down...
What some might think of as stupid others might respect as informative or
otherwise helpful... Teacher always said: "The only STUPID questions are the
ones that go un_asked"...end nagging teacher voice...
