This gadget allows you to convert alphanumeric text to all sorts of weird "pseudo-font" equivalents in the upper reaches of Unicode, all in the humble world of plaintext. Surprise your friends by breaking out πΈππΆπππ πΈππππΎπβ― ππΈππΎπ π in a plaintext environment like Twitter or IRC! Get ΙͺΙ΄α΄α΄xΙͺα΄α΄α΄α΄α΄ on Sα΄α΄ΚΚ Cα΄α΄κ± like the original UΙ΄Ιͺx pioneers! Catch the β train today!

(If any of these characters show up as tofu in your browser/editor/&c., you probably don't have a pan-Unicode font installed (the famous Arial Unicode MS is rather lacking). Good pan-Unicode FOSS fonts include the DejaVu font family and Symbola.)
