# Charmap(1)

a character map

## NAME

Charmap - a character map

## SYNOPSIS

**Charmap**

## OPTIONS

**Charmap** has no options.

## DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the **Charmap** command. This manual page was written for the Debian distribution because the original program does not have a manual page.

**Charmap** is a character map. It is developed using the GNUstep development environment (www.gnustep.org) and is meant to contribute to GNUstep's promise towards a desktop environment.

Charmap offers font selection, allowing one to easily see all the glyphs which a particular font offers.

Perhaps Charmap's biggest advantage is its support for displaying Unicode information.
