We should be able to (somehow) viewer visual representations of unicode characters being used in the code. For example, say I have: System.out.println("\u0320 This is a test!"); I should be able to move my mouse over the String and see a visual representation or something similar. Please also see issue #24688 where this RFE originated. The issue #24688 describes two problems - at the beginning this RFE, but then the discussion turned towards char-to-byte and byte-to-char conversions done between a console application launched from Netbeans and the output window. This issue was filed to separate those two unrelated problems and allow solving them independently.
