AppleScript: Using Unicode the Sneaky Way

The whole point of using the raw stuff is to avoid having to insert it yourself if you're a Unicode genius.

AppleScript: Using Unicode the Sneaky Way

Wait, are you telling me you have the entire Unicode table memorized? If so, I stand in awe of your mnemonic abilities! If not, you presumably use the Character Palette to find out the Unicode values of the characters you want, so why not just double-click on the character to insert it into the script rather than typing in the entire raw data construct?

I often memorize pertinent character's IDs. Like 2756 is a black diamond with an X thru it. Or whatnot? It helps me, and it helps someone who has to type Apple's modifier keys or something.
