keyboard – How can I type unicode characters without using the mouse? – Ask Different

[WayBack] keyboard – How can I type unicode characters without using the mouse? – Ask Different (thanks [WayBack] malte):
- Press
⌃ Control+⌘ Command+␣ spaceto bring up the characters popover.- Then type in the code point and press the down arrow to select the symbol. (Use
U+####as code point)- Then simply press ENTER and you are done.
This also works with the names of the symbols (e.g. arrow).
Additional information
Note the icon in the top right of the character popover. It changes the popover to the full Character Viewer, which cannot be navigated by the keyboard. Click the icon in the top right of the Character Viewer to return to the popover. Many thanks to @Tom Gewecke for this information.

Some links on getting MacOS network interfaces and DHCP information
Posted by jpluimers on 2021/07/30
One day I’ll put this in a script that shows all DHCP information for all network interfaces.
For now some links I will need when writing that script.
Many of the below commands are also in [WayBack] Command-Line Tools: The Missing Manpages (Mac OS X for Unix Geeks).
Shows all interfaces:
networksetup -listallhardwareports
Show any DHCP server on any interface (but does not list interfaces):
system_profiler SPNetworkDataType | grep "Server Identifier"
- [WayBack] Find the IP address of your DHCP server. – Apple Community
Other options would be:
system_profiler SPNetworkDataType | grep "Server Identifier" - [WayBack] Crabeater: Stateful Parser in Python
I came up with a method for parsing the output of system commands that require knowledge of previous lines to provide context. An example of this is parsing the MAC addresses for interfaces on a Mac running OS X Leopard using the system_profiler command. The output of the command has various levels of sections. The first level of section headers aren’t indented at all. The next level is indented four spaces and the next six spaces.
For this task I want to parse out the interface names, which are indented four spaces, but there are plenty of similar subsection headers that are not interfaces. The context I need is whether or not the current line is in the Network section.
I came up with a way to implement this where the Parser is a class and has an instance variable named “state” that holds the correct method to use to parse the next line.
Notice that h2Pattern matches any subsection header, but I only use it to match a line if the line is inside the Network section (i.e. it is only used inside the network method.)
