Mac OS and Operating Systems used to include a nice nifty utility, Key Caps. In Entering ASCII Character code using ALT + ### (thread), SillyDog701 showed you how to enter special character in a very easy way by holding Option key.

press the option key


press the option and shift keys


The problem with Mac OS X 10.3 , the Key Caps is gone.
(You might still have a copy of it if your Panther is upgraded from previous version.)

Now, there's something called “Keyboard Viewer”, accessible from your Input Menu.
To enable it:
System Preferences | International | Input Menu | Keyboard Viewer
