Char Menu Mac v1.0
Pick any font available in the system to see how a particular character will look.
Char Menu Mac Editor's review
Char Menu is a superb asset to enter foreign languages words without having to switch keyboard layouts. Just select the language page, and if the font contains characters for it, they will be displayed. Then just click the word in. Unlike the built in systems that require double click, a single click sends the character directly to the app currently selected. So without any special setting, you can click in sentences in Arabic, Armenian, Corean, Farsi, Greek, Hebrew, Japanese, Russian, for instance. Even antique languages (you may need the fonts). Fonts generally contain semi graphics to create frames, lines, grey or black blocks, which can be used for all sorts of interesting effects. Even in pure and plain English text, it is nice to pick just the right kind of dot, just the right kind of em dash, or that special character that the regular keyboard does not provide.
