> U+1F52E CRYSTAL BALL
Given that the current display is
position: 588 of 1015 (58%), column: 2
character: 🔮 (displayed as 🔮) (codepoint 128302, #o372456, #x1f52e)
preferred charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point in charset: 0x1F52E
script: symbol
syntax: w which means: word
category: .:Base
to input: type "C-x 8 RET 1f52e" or "C-x 8 RET CRYSTAL BALL"
buffer code: #xF0 #x9F #x94 #xAE
file code: #xF0 #x9F #x94 #xAE (encoded by coding system utf-8)
display: by this font (glyph code)
uniscribe:-outline-Symbola-normal-normal-normal-serif-15-*-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1 (#x1AE4)
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: CRYSTAL BALL
With the codepoint shown 3 times above the name, why would you want it
displayed yet another time? Isn't that highly redundant?
Emacs displays this information for Emacs users. "C-x =" is a
general-purpose command, not a command intended for learning Unicode
or perusing Unicode blocks. If someone writes a command for viewing
Unicode blocks, I can understand why U+1F52E should be there. But
this is not that case.
