OK, I tried to use the following TeX example document:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
\documentclass{paper}
\begin{document}
\textminus, \textnineoldstyle, \textohm, \textonehalf, \textoneoldstyle.
\end{document}
--8<---------------cut here---------------end------------->8---
After I compiled the above document using xelatex with the generated
pdf rendered in Emacs buffer, I try to select one of the generated
character in the pdf file, and then hit `M-x describe-char RET'. But
this way can't let me obtain the correct codepoint which is needed to
customize the `LaTeX-math-list' using a form similar to the following
one in `tex--prettify-symbols-alist':
("\\alpha" . 945)

I think the `LaTeX-math-list' should be the appropriate place, which
belongs to the defcustom group.
