What do I type to produce the command symbol (⌘) in Mac OS X?
If you're just looking for the Unicode versions of Mac OS X keys, you can use this Apple support document to copy and paste them:

⌘ Command (or Cmd)
⇧ Shift
⌥ Option (or Alt)
⌃ Control (or Ctrl)


More generally, Mac OS X provides a pane to insert special characters. You'll find it under Edit -&gt; Emoji and Symbols in any program that takes text input. The Command key symbol can be found by searching for it's name &quot;place of interest&quot;. To insert the character, double click it.


If you're really hardcore and are looking for a way to type the character by entering the Unicode hex code, this is possible:

Go into System Preferences -&gt; Keyboard -&gt; Input Sources, click &quot;+&quot;, scroll to &quot;others&quot;, select &quot;Unicode Hex Input&quot; and click &quot;Add&quot;


From the input source selector in the menu bar, select &quot;Unicode Hex Input&quot;


To enter a Unicode character, hold down option and type the 4-digit hex code for the character and it will be inserted. In this case, it would be option+2318.
