    How do I add/alter an ALT code?


    I am trying to add an alt code for Unicode U+0305 so I can easily add combining overlines to letters. As of right now Alt+0305 simply registers as Alt+305 which is just the number '1'. I have spent hours on trying to figure this out in order to use medical shorthand on class assignments.For example, if I copy the combining overline from the 'character map' application, then ctrl+v I can turn c into c̅ ; s into s̅ ; a into a̅ ; and q into q̅ . However I need to keep the character copied to my clipboard which is less than ideal. With this, every time I need to copy paste something else, in order

    It does do that, mlee. All buttons have tooltips with the alt code and a description listed in it.

    I had originally thought of including all of the characters with accents and a lot of other special punctuation, but I was trying to keep the GUI small.
    The intent of this app was for quick characters when forum posting and not a comprehensive list of all the possible alt codes.
    I will give it some thought. Maybe a settings option so the GUI only displays the character sets that you need/want.
