Hi everyone. I guess my problem is I am a novice in Java.
I need to read a bunch of codes from a file, and to display the corresponding Unicode characters.

For example:  I want to read in "015E" and display the character Ş (unicode 015E)

Yes, you guessed it. I can't get around Unicode escapes! I managed to figure out the following:

1. text("backslashu015E",100,100);   
   

works fine

1. String s="backslashu015E";
   text(s,100,100);                 
   

does not work, but

1. String s="backslashuu015E";       
   text(s,100,100);

works again!

The trouble is, when I read the string " backslashu015E" from a file, the escape is transformed into an ordinary backslash character. If I read just "u015E", then how can I add the backslash at the beginning???
