In C# or even in .NET, are the Unicode characters beyond U+FFFF pretty
much out of the picture, at least as far as the use of the char and
string data types is concerned? Not that I have much use for Linear B or
cuneiform, and frankly I don't know why Majong tiles would be included
in a character set--what's next, squares on the Monopoly board?--but one
never know what one's future needs might be.

..NET supports "Unicode surrogate pairs" to some extent.

Se System.Globalization.StringInfo class for the support ...
