How to get (non-simple) Unicode characters, e.g, U+1D504?
Hi all, How would I get the character U+1D504 (Fraktur A) in LispWorks? I don't need to be able to view it in the editor or anything, I just want the object. The manual says "LispWorks uses Unicode (UCS-2 encoding) internally in its representation of character objects. All Unicode characters can be represented in strings". My first attempt was to use the #\U+... notation… CL-USER 25 > #\U+1D504 Error: Wrong character name: U+1D504. 1 (abort) Return to level 0. 2 Return to top loop level 0. But I guess that doesn't have to work, based on the manual: "I don't expect the following to work, based on "All simple characters have names that consist of U+ followed by the code of the character in hexadecimal, for example #\U+764F is (code-char #x764F) ." So then I tried using code-char, but I don't get a character here either: CL-USER 27 > (code-char #x1D504) NIL What am I missing? U+1D504 certainly falls into the category of "All Unicode characters", right? Thanks in advance, //JT -- Joshua Taylor, http://www.cs.rpi.edu/~tayloj/
