I use Key Caps from time to time and find it very useful ..ie.. compared to the PC Character Map where you have to copy and paste .... useless tool. I am looking for the PC equivalent to the Mac desktop utility 'Key Caps'. Would really appreciate getting advise on this matter.

I did find a utility for the PC to do the job at <http://www.freedownloadscenter.com/Multimedia_and_Graphics/Graphical_Text_Tools/PopChar_Win.html>
however I do not use it often enough to pay the price they are asking, I am looking for freeware.
