> From the TechTip:
"IDL Widgets do not have access to any font other than the Operating
System device fonts, and are coded in such a way that they can only
create strings of 1-byte ASCII characters. That is, string arguments
used in IDL widget calls can only map to the first 256 chars in any
operating system device fontset"

So David's cut'n paste from the Character Map works only because the
chosen character was in the first 256 characters - but the !Z notation
does not work because IDL wasn't coded to interpret that notation in
that case (widgets). Is that what that means?
