unicode escape sequences in AppleScript strings


  • Subject: unicode escape sequences in AppleScript strings

Is there a way to enter unicode escape sequences in a string in AppleScript.

My first (and only) attempt was to use the standard escape mechanism

set x to "my unicode string \u303d"

where \u303d is a standard escape sequence for representing a unicode
character in a non-unicode string. I get a compile error when trying to run
this script. I looked in the AppleScript help system but found nothing. I
looked in standard additions but found only ASCII calls. What am I missing?
