You can find details about the Character Palette at this link from the Mac support site. The procedure is a bit different depending on your version of Mac OS X. | |||

There should be a small flag in the top right corner of your menu bar, click this and a character map menu will appear - from here you can get an interactive character map that changes when you press down certain operator keys (e.g. apple/ alt etc.); or a character map. If this flag doesn't seem to be there - check out system preferences, and the click the "international" icon, you should be able to check a box to incorporate the flag in your menu bar from here. | ||||

The Character Palette as mentioned by Gnoupi is IMO the best solution. But if you prefer a standalone program, the UnicodeChecker might be a solution as well (you can copy&paste the characters from the UnicodeChecker into your program): | |||
