User Reviews

  • Unlike the old (non-Unicode) AllChars, this software isn't really usable anymore, alas. There are a number of serious issues (Control characters don't work, dead keys don't work, AltGr-generated accents don't work) and there doesn't seem to occur any bug fixing anymore.
  • Allchars works perfect.

  • If you need full documentation of the compose key sequences defined in Xorg, please see Compose Key Sequence Reference Guide 2012, ISBN 1-4681-4110-4.
  • AllChars was a great piece of software in the 2000's and I have been using it a lot, with great success and productivity. Unfortunately, v5 has been in beta since 2009: is this project abandoned? After a switch from 32-bit WinXP to 64-bit Win8 I decided to find another solution: - MS International Keyboard Layout provides some AllChars' shortcuts, but not all, by far. - MS provides an International Keyboard Layout editor called Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator. - Other options are: Autohotkey.com or Sharpkeys.codeplex.com or even Klm32.com (but I haven't tried these at all)...
  • I used it many years, specially together with Firefox on Wikipedia, but I never could get it to work on Windows 7 (64). Since I had some typing problems after a real bad meningitis it was really difficult for me to write without AllChars. I have been waiting for a new version, 5.0 or something, in two years now, but I think the allchars project has closed down by some new owner. There is no version 5 for Windows 7. Last time it worked it was 4.? and I used Windows XP. Life seems to be like this, as soon as I find something useful and good – it could be AllChars or a TV series or a good schampoo or something else very useful – they close it down. Fast fox is an alternative text expander, but not so god as Allchars. It really saved me /Stefan
