About unicode-utf8-list:
UNICODE-UTF8-LIST is just a large text file containing all current Unicode characters and lists them in the following format: <UTF-8 value> # <Unicode value> <Character name> This is very handy when creating keymaps.

For those designing BeOS keyboard layouts it is rather a pain to find a character, find the Unicode value, calculate the UTF-8 value, and place it all back in a file. UNICODE-UTF8-LIST is just a simple text file containing all current Unicode characters and lists them in the following format:
<UTF-8 value> # <Unicode value> <Character name>

SAMPLE:
0xe28da1 # U+2361 APL FUNCTIONAL SYMBOL UP TACK DIAERESIS
0xe18f8a # U+13CA CHEROKEE LETTER QUU


The Unicode values and character names are taken from the 3.0 specification database at: ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/UNIDATA/UnicodeData-Latest.txt

And why is this useful? When sorting diacritics, for example, you may just 'grep' for the diacritic and the results will already be in a format you can copy into a keymap.

GREP EXAMPLES;

$ grep "GRAVE" unicode-utf8-list
-- will find every character entry containing the string GRAVE. However, this list is large and will return entries from various languages and will also list characters with both GRAVE combined with other diacritics.

$ grep "GRAVE" unicode-utf8-list | grep -v "BREVE" -- will find every character entry containing the string GRAVE but not
containing the string BREVE. Adjust to taste.

Want a list of Devanagari characters?
$ grep "DEVANAGARI" unicode-utf8-list
