XChars is a replacement for the Chars utility that comes with RISC OS. It
offers a host of additional features: proper outline font support at
arbitrary font sizes, many user-defined display options, configurable hot
keys for character insertion, a character zoom box, a hotlist for fonts
including the complete set of options used to display them, saving of character
glyphs as Draw files, etc.
By the way: For quite some time, a slightly older version of XChars has been
distributed as the new standard RISC OS character picker as part of RISC OS Select.
