Intro-
I looked on Lynda.com for a simple new feature from Photoshop C6 to Photoshop CC, and what I found was described as "long-awaited," and "added at last." This new feature is called the "Glyphs Panel," this window can be found under the "Window" tab, but it can also be found under "Type>Panels>Glyphs Panel," as seen below.
Uses-
The image I am using Is just a picture I took of a blank table, the words on the left and right are "ありがとう！," and "Thanks!", "ありがとう" means "thanks" in Japanese! (There is a difference difference between the word "thanks," and the phrase "thank you" in Japanese)
What the Glyphs Panel is, is a panel that allows you to see the entire set of symbols within a font. The reason I chose Japanese was to show the difference between the few english characters there are, and the many Japanese characters that are in it's language system (That's over 5000 characters!), It also goes to show how much is access-able within a font, so if you can't make it on your keyboard, you can just look through the Glyphs Panel to get any symbol that's in the font without copy-pasting symbols that aren't access-able on the keyboard.
