Interesting Unicode Codepoints

| U+FDFD | Basmala | Islamic phrase, really big unicode character, breaks many text inputs because of its size | |
| U+200D | Zero width joiner | Joins two or more characters in a sequence to make a new emoji. Man + ZWJ + White hair = 👨🦳 | |
| U+200B | Zero-width space | Used to separate words in languages with no explicit spacing |

Using a Script to Enter Unicode
An easy method to enter special characters is by using an AutoHotkey script. You can use the Send command with codepoint literals like so:
CapsLock & \::Send {U+0300}The above allows you to use caps-lock+backslash as a hotkey to send a combining grave accent (attaches to the previous character). I use a series of hotkeys to more easily type accents and symbols, you can check that out at this repository.
