## Detailed Description

A Widget which allows the user to select a character of a specified font in a table Character-Selection Widget.

You can specify the font whoes characters should be displayed via setFont(). Using enableFontCombo() you can allow the user to choose the font from a combob-box. As only 256 characters are displayed at once in the table, using the spinbox on the top the user can choose starting from which chracater the table displayes them. This spinbox also can be enabled or disabled using enableTableSpinBox().

KCharSelect supports keyboard and mouse navigation. Click+Move selects always the character below the mouse cursor. Using the arrow keys the focus mark is moved around and with pressing RETURN or SPACE the cell which contains the focus mark gets selected.

To get the current selected character, use the chr() method. You can set the character which should be displayed with setChar() and the table number which should be displayed with setTableNum().
