From what I read on Savannah, I would guess that Charmap is an advanced
version of a concept to which the MacOS X equivalent would probably be
the "Character palette" you can get via the "Edit" menu:
This palette lets you preview all character by code page, script system
or unicode block, displays its name and shows "similar characters". It
also offers a display of a character in all fonts that have a particular
character.
Am I misunderstanding the (sadly rather sparse) description of what
Charmap is here, or are the two programs fairly similar?
