Subject: describe-char missing info on unicode thumb up char
Date: Wed, 26 Jan 2011 08:15:57 -0800 (PST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <43c0ec93-f5d2-4d22-97c5-493f45c23c46@o9g2000pre.googlegroups.com> (raw)

there are these unicode symbols

ok hand sign 👌 #x1f44c
thumb up 👍 #x1f44d
thumb down 👎 #x1f44e

when calling describe-char on them, it doesn't give their names.

is this a bug? does it happen to just few chars, or perhaps all chars
outside basic multilingual plane? I know that many chars outside of
BMP doesn't have this problem.
