On my "unicode" wars... i've found one site of huge value: http://www.unicode.org/charts/charindex.html
This has ALL the unicode tables of ALL supported glyphs on ALL the standards (specially important if you need just "that" glyph and you don't know it's code). I ended up consulting it regulary on my work. Another page of some interest specially because of the use of Macs is: http://www.alanwood.net/demos/charsetdiffs.html Which can enlight why some characters appear and some don't.
