Thank you.

BTW, I remember that we once discussed about an ability to input
characters by their Unicode names and codepoints.  But currently
I can't find such a command, maybe I miss it.  I see only the old command
`ucs-insert'.  Is `ucs-insert' already obsolete?  As I understand,
hex values of Unicode characters can be now entered by `C-q'?
