Add new special character in tinymce charmap

Question

I am using tinymce editor for my project. I want to add some more special characters (for eg Rupee sign (₹)). However I didn't find any solution.

My code is

tinymce.init({
            "selector": "#editor",
            "menubar":false,
            "statusbar": false,
            "plugins": "charmap",
            "toolbar": "bold italic underline | charmap"
})

Any help would be appreciated

You can modify the options in the character map using either charmap or charmap_append in your TinyMCE configuration:

charmap entirely replaces the default character map that TinyMCE uses by default

charmap_append adds new characters to the default character map that TinyMCE uses by default

For example you could add something like either of these to your TinyMCE configuration:

charmap: [["0256","A - kahako"],["0257","a - kahako"],["0274","E - kahako"]]

or

charmap_append: [["0256","A - kahako"],["0257","a - kahako"]]
