AskKey is a simple freeware application that is designed for those who work with ASCII characters and HTML notations and Unicode symbols. Using ASC/Chr, you can find ASCII values for particular characters or vice versa. Use HTML to find HTML notations for particular keys. Switch to 'Key' and press a key on your keyboard, and AskKey will tell you its ASCII value. When you work with Unicode symbols, try Sym1 and Sym2. Sym2 covers hundreds of Unicode notations over 7 fields.
It's not just ASCII characters, HTML notations and Unicode symbols that AskKey deals with. One extra feature of AskKey lets users change and serialize file names regardless of the number of files involved. Likewise, users can change the extension of a group of files from one to another.
As a software developer, AskKey is a must-to-have application for us. That is, we've developed AskKey so that we can faciliate our work, not to please other users. So its design is none of our interest. If it bothers you so much, if you don't like the name or its icon, then just don't use it.
