Subject: bug#6775: please say U+ in what-cursor-position
Date: Mon, 02 Aug 2010 10:16:41 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <87pqy1wygm.fsf@jidanni.org> (raw)
In Linux, we get a Nice simple answer for the question:
$ unicode →|sed q
U+2192 RIGHTWARDS ARROW
But in emacs, what-cursor-position gives
character: → (8594, #o20622, #x2192)
preferred charset: chinese-big5-1 (Frequently used part (A141-C67E) of Big5 (Chinese traditional))
code point: 0x2258
syntax: . which means: punctuation
category: .:Base, c:Chinese, h:Korean, j:Japanese
buffer code: #xE2 #x86 #x92
file code: #xE2 #x86 #x92 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
display: by this font (glyph code)
x:-eten-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-150-75-75-c-160-big5.eten-0 (#xA1F7)
Character code properties: customize what to show
name: RIGHTWARDS ARROW
old-name: RIGHT ARROW
general-category: Sm (Symbol, Math)
Why can't you just use
(format "(%d, #o%o, U+%x, raw-byte)" char char char))
or something?
Why can't you please say "U+..."?
