gucharmap is a Unicode character map and font viewer. It allows you to browse through all the available Unicode characters and categories for the installed fonts, and to examine their detailed properties. It is an easy way to find the character you might only know by its Unicode name or code point.
This package is known to build using an LFS 6.5 platform but has not been tested.

The instructions below are based on installing the package into a
GNOME-2 environment. If, for whatever reason, you're installing
this package without having ORBit2 and the core GNOME-2 libraries
installed, you'll need to modify the --prefix= parameter on the configure script to point to
your desired installation path (e.g., --prefix=/usr).
Install gucharmap by running the following commands:
./configure --prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix ORBit-2.0) \
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2 \
--localstatedir=/var/lib &&
make
This package does not come with a test suite.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--prefix=$(pkg-config --variable=prefix
ORBit-2.0): Setting the prefix using this parameter
instead of with $GNOME_PREFIX will
ensure that the prefix is consistent with the installation
environment and the package will be installed in the correct
location.
--sysconfdir=/etc/gnome/2.30.2: This
parameter causes the configuration files to be installed in
/etc/gnome/2.30.2 instead of
$GNOME_PREFIX/etc. Additionally (if
applicable), the parameter ensures that the GConf-2 database is correctly updated.
--localstatedir=/var/lib:
This parameter is used so that all ScrollKeeper files are installed in, and the
ScrollKeeper database is properly
updated in /var/lib/scrollkeeper
instead of some files being installed in $GNOME_PREFIX/var/scrollkeeper.
--disable-gconf: Use this parameter if
you do not have GConf installed.
--enable-python-bindings: Use this
parameter if you wish to enable python bindings.
--enable-introspection: Use this
parameter if you wish to enable GObject
introspection.
--disable-scrollkeeper: Use this
parameter if you wish to disable the updates to the scrollkeeper
database.
--enable-gtk-doc: Use this parameter if
GTK-Doc is installed and you wish
to rebuild and install the API documentation.
