> "For text input, the Java 2 SDK provides a code point input method which
> accepts strings of the form "\Uxxxxxx", where the uppercase "U" indicates
> that the escape sequence contains six hexadecimal digits, thus allowing for
> supplementary characters. A lowercase "u" indicates the original form of the
> escape sequences, "\uxxxx". You can find this input method and its
> documentation in the directory demo/jfc/CodePointIM of the J2SDK."
> The following code fails with a syntax exception
> s = "\U01f5d0"
