I guess he meant anything like U+10001, which seems to be assigned to linear-B charset on the DecodeUnicode database: 𐀁 = http://www.decodeunicode.org/U+10001 UTF-8 as F0 90 80 81 Or this (Iguess that's traditional Chinese?) example taken from en.wiki: 𤭢 = http://www.decodeunicode.org/U+24B62 UTF-8 as F0 A4 AD A2 -- Lapo Luchini - http://lapo.it/ -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
