Character Map in linux? [closed]

Solution 1:

Check out this summary: http://fsymbols.com/character-maps/linux/

It lists different utilities for GNOME, KDE or other environments:

  • gucharmap, is the GNOME Character Map, based on the Unicode Character Database
  • Ubuntu Character Map
  • KCharSelect, an advanced character map tool in KDE
  • Java Character Map is a Java charmap program you can download. It works on any platform, where Java environment is installed.

Solution 2:

KCharSelect, a character map that lets you choose virtually any possible character and preview them in any font on your system, is available for KDE desktops.

You can open it by going to Applications > Utilities > Character Selector.

If you find it's not installed, then open your Linux package manager and search for the kcharselect package.
