Bloody hell. Yes, I missed them, because I assumed that the
charindex.html indexed all the characters. It does NOT! It indexes
A-D. Now I assumed that when it loaded I could just command-F and
find the text. So I did not scroll down the list. Therefore:

I suggest that the Title of this document be changed to:

Unicode 3.0.0 Character Name Index A-D

and the other two (charindex2.html and charindex3.html) to

Unicode 3.0.0 Character Name Index E-N
and
Unicode 3.0.0 Character Name Index O-Z
