How to Type Unicode Character in FM8?

[Maxwell Hoffmann]

FYI -- For anyone upgrading to FM8 who want's to experiment with UNICODE and quickly find some UNICODE test text (sans text entry), if you go to Wikipedia.com and scroll down to the bottom of the screen (below the search entry field for English), you will find several UNICODE languages listed, with thousands of articles.

But I can't figure out how to type a Unicode character! In Word, you type the hexadecimal character, then hit Alt-X. Frame's PDF user guide appears only to offer instructions for setting your computer and keyboard to use different languages _before_ you start Frame. Huh? I don't want to start typing in a foreign language. I just want to enter the occasional Unicode character or symbol. Can someone tell me how?

Or does this mean the only feature that would cause me to upgrade is worthless?
