Features

  • Send Unicode symbols.
  • Copy hexadcimal values or unicode symbols to the clipboard.
  • Cross-reference hexadcimal values or unicode symbols.

Usage

This program is a portable executable that runs in the System Tray.

  • Run the program and it will bring up the display:

UI

  • Enter either a hexadcimal value or the Unicode symbol in the corresponding control:

UI Where

  • To send the ui to the System Tray send hotkeys or a button:

UI Tray

  • Hotkeys

    • Esc
    • Alt+t
  • Button

    • System Tray
  • To show the window either right click on the 'UniSym Send' icon in the System Tray and click 'Show UniSym Send' or use a hotkey:

UI Tray 2

  • Hotkey
    • Win+Shift+u

Motivation

I work and play with Unicode a lot and wanted a easy way to do so.

There is another tool like this (also written in AutoHotkey) and it works just fine, but all it can do is send.

Project/Downloads

This program can be ran in 2 ways:

  • Compiled executable - portable/single file, no dependencies.

  • Source files - requires AutoHotkey to be installed.

Future Updates

I have plans for at least 1 update with a new feature and I'm planning a 2nd version written in Python.

  • V1 - Update - AutoHotkey
    • New feature
      • Adding an ComboBox/UpDown control to scroll through values.
  • V2 - Re-Write - Python
