[XeTeX] Unicode, infinity, TeXShop and XeTeX

[=?GB2312?Q?Pavel_Stra=A8=BE=A8=A2k?=]

Unicode character "INFINITY" is U+221E, not 2210E.
2210E is something in <CJK Ideograph Extension B>, i believe it is 
unused.

In the Character Pallette's Unicode Table the row header is 2210, but 
the character shows as 221E, when you stpo mouse on it. Seems confusing 
to me.
There is a nice Unicode browser called UnicodeChecker.
