DESCRIPTION
UnicodeChecker is an application that displays information for every code point from the Unicode Standard. For a given number, UnicodeChecker will display that character along with its UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encodings, XHTML entity, Unicode Name, mapping information and much more.

UnicodeChecker features several conversion functions and other Unicode utilities, some of which are also added to the Mac OS X "Services" menu and/or AppleScript (e.g. converting text to and from HTML character entities, (un-)escaping Unicode for CSS or Java, getting properties via AppleScript) so they can be used from within other applications.

WHAT'S NEW
Version 1.14:
  • Uses Unicode 5.2.0 data files.
  • Uses version 1.7 of the “Adobe Glyph List For New Fonts”.
  • New QuickLook plugin for previewing Codepoints found via the (optionally) generated Spotlight index.
  • New “Length” utility for displaying number of codepoints along with number of code units and bytes for UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 encoding.
  • The “Split Up” utility now supports drag and drop for rearranging and adding new codepoints.
  • Added option in the “Escape” plugin to escape every codepoint. Previously, only codepoints from a predefined set were escaped.
  • Minor improvements and bugfixes.
REQUIREMENTS
Mac OS X 10.3 or later.

GARRETT ALBRIGHT  VERY handy program for working with Unicode symbols in HTML... The program itself is good, but it's the Services menu functions that make it invaluable. Kudos!
