Since this looks like it could be complicated here is what I was actually
trying to do with the FreeType library. This works for ASCII but broke down
with those unicode chars. I'm confused now because you say the character are
more than 2 bytes so I don't know what the actual size of an element is.
for glyph in '⌘⌥⌫⇧^' do
FT_Load_Char(m_face, ord(glyph), FT_LOAD_RENDER);
