That tip about the Mac OS character viewer is worth buckets: Thanks a lot!
Oh darn, that first sentence.... let me rewrite that.

I think that Fontographer will show you the UTF8 values of the glyphs. You can 
take those values and convert them to binary using the binaryEncode function. 
Convert the binary value to UTF16.

It is probably easier to use Mac OS X's Character Viewer. This palette will 
allowyou to view the code tables. You can look up unicode character 31f0 for 
example. On intel machines, you need to reverse this hex number before you can 
use it. 31f0 becomes f031, e201 becomes 01e2 etc. I believe you don't need to 
do this on a PowerMac.

If you use these functions, you can just enter a sequence of hex numbers and 
set the unicodetext of a field to the value returned.
