Notation for universal characters \uXXXX For the characters in Plan 9's char set, it's unneeded; you can type the character in as many keystrokes (Alt, X, xxxx). For characters outside Unicode's BMP, it's not terribly helpful, since Plan 9 doesn't understand them at all. That said, these universal characters aren't hard to implement at all. Come semester's end and I'll submit a patch to add them to the lexer.
