I found the listings of the names of the Urdu-specific characters being mapped to their Unicode values in the keysymdef.h file, including the Urdu numeral symbols (Arabic-Indic digits) which are otherwise absent from my regular Urdu Phonetic keyboard. | |

Yes, you can use unicode hex in pattern UXXXX or 0x100XXXX . Symbols like Arabic_hah are declared in /usr/include/X11/keysymdef.h as mentioned in unix.stackexchange.com/questions/101410
