[Gimp-user] Found Re: Where are "N", "M" dashes?
Found it! From Techwalla: "Select "Use Editor" in the GIMP toolbox to display the text editor and then press "Ctrl," "Shift" and "U" to enable direct Unicode entry. The text editor displays a "u" to represent a Unicode character. Insert the symbol by typing its Unicode value in the window and pressing "Enter."" Unicode from unicode-table.com: https://unicode-table.com/en/blocks/general-punctuation/ "General Punctuation is a Unicode block containing punctuation, spacing, and formatting characters for use with all scripts and writing systems. Included are the defined-width spaces, joining formats, directional formats, smart quotes, archaic and novel punctuation such as the interobang, and invisible mathematical operators."

Right now you can only scan 8-bit per channel images with the xsane gimp plugin, although the standalone xsane is fine. Is there anything for Linux systems that competes with XSane? the other scanning programs I've seen are very limited - e.g. can't select a page area (whole page only) or can't choose bit depth, or can't tell the scanner to focus on the glass or the film holder, or to use the document feeder, or don't have a "batch' feature where you choose several areas on the page to be scanned when you press the button on the scanner (or the Ok button in the interface). The xsane gimp plugin is often packaged separately from XSane and separately from GIMP.
