One can take advantage of the new Unicode release by downloading the Unicode data file and customizing the variable describe-char-unicodedata-file. ,----[ C-h v describe-char-unicodedata-file RET ] | describe-char-unicodedata-file is a variable defined in `descr-text.el'. | [...] | | Documentation: | Location of Unicode data file. | This is the UnicodeData.txt file from the Unicode Consortium, used for | diagnostics. If it is non-nil `describe-char' will print data | looked up from it.
