In Microsoft Word you can insert Unicode characters by typing the hex value of the character then typing Alt-x. You can also see the Unicode value of a character by placing the cursor immediately after the character and pressing Alt-x. This also works in applications that use the Windows rich edit control such as WordPad and Outlook.
It's stacked diacritics on top of one another, as seen here, and in the infamous zalgo text; in this case stacked accents used in many non-English Latin-based languages. Specifically, it seems to be a tilde, used as an accent. Credit where credit is due, it uses the same techniques used for the faces in this question. Share.
As can be seen in the figure below (the Cyrillic part is highlighted), Notepad++ actually converts the Unicode characters into ASCII 63 (hexadecimal 3F), question marks. That is why the Unicode characters are lost (in "ANSI" mode) when copying the text out through the clipboard (it is not a font issue - information is lost).
1. I understand you are trying to type the Unicode Character 'CHECK MARK' (U+2713) : . The documentation here is not very helpful. The way to do that is to type: Alt down + 2713 Alt up. You need to use the NumPad while typing the + and the numbers. Unfortunately Alt + + codes only work with a registry tweak.
Unicode is a 21-bit character set so it can go up to 2'097'151, i.e. the full set is not only 65536 characters. UTF-8 is a variable length encoding for Unicode, using 8-bit code units. It can even represent code points outside the Unicode space, up to 2<sup>31</sup>-1. So there's nothing related to 65536 in either Unicode or UTF-8.
Press and hold down the Alt key. Press the + (plus) key on the numeric keypad. Type each character of the hexadecimal Unicode value in sequence: 2, 0, A and C. Release the Alt key. The example above succeeded in Windows 10, but has proved to work in many versions.
Unicode 6 characters are supported, but hard to read/differentiate: How do I add support for these characters to a Windows 7 system? Is there a way to display them the way Android does, so they are easier to read? Test characters: Unicode 6.1: 😀😗😙😑😮😯😴😛😕😟; Unicode 7.0: 🙂🙁🕵🗣🕴🖕🖖🖐
Yes. Else you can enter the code you know into another application, and copy/paste it into chrome. Wordpad is good - type the code in, and then hit alt-x. If you want to avoid copy/pasting, then you need a chrome extension. The most trivial is the 'Unicode Input' extension, which makes the insert key work like alt-x does in wordpad.
Inputting Unicode characters in Linux varies. The UTF-8 and Unicode FAQ has a section containing different input methods: Ctrl+Shift+U [unicode in hex] is defined in ISO 14755 and implemented by GTK2+, and works in GNOME-Terminal and other applications. Ctrl+V u [unicode in hex] works in VIM.
There are several ways to do this and here's a few of them. In the Search bar (Cortana) on the taskbar, search for "Control Panel". In the Control Panel, click on Change date, time, or number formats under Clock, Language and Region in category view or Region in icon list view. Windows 10 only: In the Search bar again, search for "region ...
