Maybe this is a bit naive; but how does one derive the 2 Hex numbers for a
character beyond the
Basic Multilingual Plane if one knows the Unicode address?
The algorithm is explained here -

Implementing it will require you to twiddle bits and no doubt the use of
bitAnd, bitOr and bitXor.
I don't have time to take a stab at such a routine right now but will try if
you're really stuck.

Thanks.
I'm not stuck as, right now (and probably for at least another 2 years
if I stick to my GANTT chart) it is neither
here nor there.
I will, as a sort of "kinky Christmas present" to myself, have a go at
this; and, in the unlikely
event of success will post the results here :)
