BabelMap
Description
"BabelMap" version 8.0.0.2 is a highly versatile and free character map application specifically developed for Windows 7. Created by Andrew West, this software offers a comprehensive exploration of the vast Unicode character repertoire, which includes over 110,000 characters.
The key executable for this application is BabelMap.exe. This tool falls under the category of Office Tools and excels in the subcategory of Document Management. Previous iterations like 8.0, and 6.3 have laid a strong foundation, and the current version builds on these with robust features. Unlike many other character map applications, BabelMap is stand-out freeware, making it accessible without cost.
The latest version includes several significant features:
- A detailed Unicode Character Grid displaying all 110,187 assigned and 137,468 private use characters, based on Unicode 6.3.
- The ability to browse through the Unicode character repertoire using either a single font or a user-defined virtual composite font. This flexibility allows users to save and load different composite font mappings seamlessly.
- The option to navigate through the character grid by plane, block, or page of 128 characters.
- Specialized browsing for CJK Unified Ideographs by radical, in addition to a dropdown list for selecting any Unicode block.
