Unfortunatly Inkscape does not support such a convenient method, so you have to copy&paste it from another software. We think [http://utils.kde.org/projects/kcharselect| KCharSelect] is a nice (Open Source) Software for this purpose. KCharSelect offers a very convenient method to find and insert special characters. |
