A command like chr$() that would permit access to the unicode character set of the current font that is active.  I am particularly interested in access to some of the following:

Unicode symbols
Letterlike Symbols
Number Forms
Arrows
Mathematical symbols
Miscellaneous Technical
Enclosed Alphanumerics
Box Drawing
Block Elements
Geometric Shapes
Miscellaneous Symbols

I know that unicode opens up a huge area of issues and challenges for cross platform support.  I am hoping that we can simply output a unicode character (if supported by the font's character set in use) one at a time using some mechanism like chr$()

Thanks
