Spy++-like tools aren't widely used on the Mac, because one program 
manipulating another program's U.I. is a security hole, and because 
unlike MS-Windows, Macintosh Controls are not sub-windows. See:

If you are programming in Cocoa, all the text fields, both editable and 
non-editable are already enabled for Unicode. You can open the unicode 
table on the Input Menu panel of the International Panel of System 
Preferences, and use the Palettes to enter any Unicode character to your 
heart's content.
