Unicode Codepoints

Hi there,

I've a feeling the answer to this one is going to be embarrassingly simple, but it's got me stumped! I want to be able to add a character to a TextEdit document, but I want to be able to specify the character by it's unicode codepoint. So instead of this;

tell application "TextEdit"
make new document at beginning
tell front document
set character 1 to "H"
end tell
end tell

...I want to be able to do something like this...

tell application "TextEdit"
make new document at beginning
tell front document
set character 1 to Unicode codepoint "\U000048"
end tell
end tell

Obviously, I made up the 'Unicode codepoint' bit of the second example.

I've installed Unicode OSAX, but have failed to get any kind of result out of it whatsoever. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks
Rob
