Whatever happened to Key Caps

[Len Berggren]

I just started using MS Word for on my iBook running System X. I would
like to see a map of characters assigned to different keys in a given
font. Where do I find this.

I'll assume you are new to X but know 9. The keycaps utility is in
/Applications/Utilities. More or less the same as in OS 9.
In addition there is a character palette which you add to the menu bar
from International pane of System preferences under the input tab.
Sadly, it is not much use in Word, because MS did not exactly bust a
gut getting all the fancy Unicode working. (and their mates will say
that Apple did not help them too much either)
