Schmitz Ergonis Software has issued [1]PopChar X 7.4 with support for displaying all the color flags that are available in Apple Color Emoji. You can also search for country names (rather than use combinations of so-called 'regional indicator symbols,' such as 'C' and 'K' for the Cook Islands flag), and this functionality requires OS X 10.10.3 Yosemite or later (with an extended flag set available in El Capitan 10.11). [2]Image The character discovery utility also improves metrics adjustments for certain fonts (such as handwriting fonts), fixes a a minor cosmetic issue with the group pop-up button on retina displays, and improves the app's clipboard-based insertion technique.
