Sorry, it's my fault.  It should be:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
             position: 757 of 1217 (62%), column: 0
            character: â (displayed as â) (codepoint 226, #o342, #xe2)
    preferred charset: unicode (Unicode (ISO10646))
code point in charset: 0xE2
               script: latin
               syntax: w     which means: word
             category: .:Base, L:Left-to-right (strong), j:Japanese,
l:Latin, v:Viet
             to input: type "C-x 8 RET HEX-CODEPOINT" or "C-x 8 RET NAME"
          buffer code: #xC3 #xA2
            file code: #xC3 #xA2 (encoded by coding system utf-8-unix)
              display: composed to form "ấ" (see below)

Composed with the following character(s) "́" using this font:
  nil:-apple-Menlo-medium-normal-normal-*-12-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
by these glyphs:
  [0 1 226 164 7 0 7 9 0 nil]
  [0 1 769 646 7 0 5 2 0 [-6 0 0]]

Character code properties: customize what to show
  name: LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH CIRCUMFLEX
  old-name: LATIN SMALL LETTER A CIRCUMFLEX
  general-category: Ll (Letter, Lowercase)
  decomposition: (97 770) ('a' '̂')
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I'll also show "C-u C-x =" for other characters later.
