[oXygen-user] entering unicode characters

Hello,

trying to find out whether Oxygen is capable of inserting unicode 
characters the same way Word does (i.e. giving the character code 
directly, without using any visual character map or something...) I 
found a reply from Sorin to the same question asked by someone in 
September 2006. Sorin then said:

You cannot enter the code of the character, for 
example \uB031 because that is not supported in the current version of 
<oXygen/> but it is planned for a future version.


Two years later, the manual of the current version still shows no sign 
of this functionality being added, but maybe it has been added silently 
(because it's really a shame that the only way to enter unicode 
characters is the character map and code-templates), which I hope. Maybe 
someone can give me more information on this?

Thanks,
Philipp
