Quick access to common special characters through the floating window.
Many of the special typographic features within fonts — from bullets and em dashes to fractions — cannot be found on the keyboard. Glyphs extension provides quick access to common special characters through the floating window displayed on the page.
The extension glyph set includes 605 characters, mostly from AGLFN (Adobe Glyph List For New Fonts) a list of base glyphs that are recommended for new fonts, extended with all Unicode dashes and whitespace that are especially useful to editors.
Each character is assigned to one or more categories: Basic Latin and Latin 1, Extended Latin A and B, Punctuation, Dashes & Quotes, Whitespace, Currency, Numbers, Math Symbols, Symbols, Greek and Coptic.

- gave me more than expected!! It's not a copy/paste. I just mark the character i want to insert and that's it. Very easy and fast.

- Хорошо, но было бы круче, если бы не Юникод, а еще и комбинацию клавиш показывал в подписи.

- This is soooo much better than all the alternatives I've tried, and I think I've tried them all! The only thing really missing is a copy-to-clipboard option for use with pages and chromebook apps that don't play well. (like this 'unscriptable' reviews page) A nice to have would be a hotkey that would pop it up over the top of a chrome-os windowed site or app, so it's globally available. A real treat would be adding the ability to associate a replacement string and a hotkey for a glyph, then I could dump ProKeys for this. e.g. I use Prokeys with -->[search]+[space] to quickly insert ⟶ (at least on scriptable pages, I don't think there is a solution for that on pages like this one, other than copy-to-clipboard)

- I've just installed it but I already love it! It is super easy to use and doesn't require any special permissions to run. Thanks for developing this! :)
