I know Jonathan's already commented on this, but it's really
important people understand the difference between font mapping and
xunicode.
xunicode converts macros to unicode chars: \textemdash to —
font mapping converts unicode chars to unicode chars: --- to —
font mappings can also be used to do things like create ligatures and
perform transliteration.
xunicode provides a wealth of macros to more conveniently access
unicode characters by referring to them with command names.
