Create your own OS X keyboard layouts online
There's a great web program here: wordherd.com/keyboards/ to create customized OS X keyboard layout files, including good documentation.
I've used it to make keyboard symbol characters (jpg example) from Lucida Grande available through keyboard shortcuts. When writing a software manual you can then use the "real" keyboard symbols (like the Command "clover"), instead op writing "Command-C". The Lucida Grande has all those symbols, they're just not easily available (though Character Palette will do for occasional use).

A small example of how to do this, using the web program of the parent post:
In Lucida Grande, Option-Shift-l will then produce the CapsLock symbol, Option-Shift-a will produce the Command "clover" symbol, etc. Use the Character Palette to find out which Unicode number represents which symbol, for instance in this screenshot the clover symbol is Unicode 2318. |
