alt + x works also in Notepad 11.2112.32.0 on Windows 10, not sure about previous versions. [[Special:Contributions/213.184.17.126|213.184.17.126]] ([[User talk:213.184.17.126|talk]]) 15:48, 6 September 2023 (UTC)
alt + X does not work on my HP laptop running Windows 11. [[Special:Contributions/136.36.180.215|136.36.180.215]] ([[User talk:136.36.180.215|talk]]) 01:04, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
== Missing: UTF-8 hex input ==
The article doesn't currently mention it, but UTF-8 is the de facto standard for representing Unicode in computer systems. PHP, and perhaps other languages, have built-in ways to specify Unicode characters of any length (including exotic combinations of glyphs and properties) using hexadecimal number literals. Most online Unicode character descriptions include UTF-8 representations. So shouldn't the article reflect this reality, instead of keeping alive the mostly outmoded concept of code points? The most compact way to represent Unicode characters of any byte length greater than one is through UTF-8 hexadecimal.

:I have not seen any input methods that use UTF-8 code units. Maybe you can use {{tt|\xNN}} for each byte in a string constant in some languages, but this is pretty uncommon.[[User:Spitzak|Spitzak]] ([[User talk:Spitzak|talk]]) 19:04, 29 January 2024 (UTC)
== Where? ==
"Microsoft Windows has provided a Unicode version of the Character Map program, appearing in the consumer edition since XP" Where is this found?[[Special:Contributions/136.36.180.215|136.36.180.215]] ([[User talk:136.36.180.215|talk]]) 01:05, 8 September 2024 (UTC)
