In Unicode-savvy applications for MacOS X the characters of the Dingbats
block are accessed not by simply changing to the Dingbats font, but by
changing the keyboard layout or selecting the characters from the
Character Pallette. This keyboard layout accesses the characters in the
Dingbats Unicode block (and a few more, in order to cover all the
characters of the Zapf Dingbats font, version 4.1d1e2, as distributed with
MacOS X 10.3).

Summary in English: This is an extended Norwegian keyboard layout, but it is not identical to Apple's "Norwegian Extended", which was introduced some nine months later than the first version of this one. You'll need a physical ISO keyboard in order to make full use of "Utvida norsk".
There are two versions of the keyboard layout: "Utvida norsk" and "Utvida norsk-". The difference between them is simply where the characters « » < > ≤ ≥ are placed. In "Utvida norsk-" they are on the same keys and key combination as in the standard Norwegian keyboard layout from Apple, in "Utvida norsk" the characters « and » are more easily accessible.
«Utvida norsk» er ikkje det same som Apples «Norsk utvidet». Sistnemnde kom ni månader etter den fyrste versjonen av «Utvida norsk». Du vil trenga eit fysisk ISO-tastatur for å gjera deg full nytte av «Utvida norsk». Har du eit norsk tastatur med æ, ø og å på tastane, er det nettopp eit ISO-tastatur du har. :)
Det finst to versjonar her: «Utvida norsk» og «Utvida norsk-». Grunnen er at eg bruker teikna « og » oftare enn eg bruker < og >, og då vil eg gjerne ha « og » på ein lett tilgjengeleg stad. Skilnaden mellom dei to tastaturoppsetta er at i «Utvida norsk-» ligg « » < > ≤ ≥ på dei vanlege plassane sine, i «Utvida norsk» ligg « og » på den tasten som på det fysiske norske tastaturet har teikna < og >.
