Hi, Has anyone ever entered characters by entering the unicode numbers? To cut a long story short I have a need to do this and cannot get it to work. I found some instructions about it and think I followed them properly,and now I am suppose to be able to hold down the option key and enter the required unicode numbers which should result in the corresponding character being entered. What seems to be happening is I hold down the option key and start typing numbers but it seems to accept the very first digit which I enter without waiting for the others, no matter how fast I type, and I am typing pretty quickly.
What complicates matters, and is the reason I have the need for this in the first place, is I am using a special keyboard adapted for one handed typing and I am also using sticky keys. However I have tried on the Macbook keyboard itself and with sticky keys switched off and it does not seem to make a difference. I wonder if anyone has any ideas? And if I cannot get this to work, is there a way I can put certain characters somewhere in the menu so I can select them from there when I need them?
