On Linux this program is very helpful to figure out Unicode chars in UTF-8 or UTF-16:

Usually the status bar shows UTF-16, but I can't find the way to change it to UTF-8 like what fits with the code example for _UPRINTSTRING.
On Linux might want to use a better font than "Cyberbit" for the example, eg. "NotoSerif-Medium.ttf", should be available in most installations with KDE Plasma. But I tested this with EndeavourOS MATE. The example as it stood was a bit hard to read so I changed the point size to 24, tested it with two different fonts loaded, with the last parameter of the new statement. "Cyberbit" stuck a few of the Cyrillic letters together; the "Noto" font was better to read.
