by toggling the characters view, this can display each of the characters in text with a numeric codepoint a computer can understand and a name a human can understand. the number is important because it can point us to a particular block of codepoints to yank into a text field.

these can be displayed to the right by clicking on any of the characters found, but when writing these, i'd rather just have an index of all of them. at the same time, sometimes it's a lot easier just to search common graphical units since they can be sprinkled throughout the blocks on this index, e.g.

block

circle

ring

accent

operator

dash

line

space

sometimes a character is not one codepoint, e.g. õ_õ is 5 codepoints despite displaying like 3 characters because i shoved some combining codepoints in there. these are typically written after a character to which they get glued in their visible format. these are difficult for some sites to render, so err against depending on them.
