Wow, Chinese speakers must memorize the corresponding Unicode codepoint for
20,000+ ideographs to enter Chinese? And I thought memorizing the ASCII
table was tough!
On a more serious note, shouldn't this ability (directly enter a Unicode hex
sequence) be present in ALL the IMEs, including the not-an-IME straight
(ASCII) input, similar to the old DOS alt+xxx sequence? I often have to use
the Unicode CharMap utility to get characters into NT that I can't get from
IME98 (Japanese NT), which is cumbersome.
And on a similar note, has any major application/OS adopted (or is using)
ISO 14755?
