Just as K&R introduced us to "Hello, World," I'm amused they adapted their first program to an Unicode world: "Hello, 世界." Seems like a great first chapter, covering computer graphics and web server/byte fetching to boot.

Would be nice if you could compose those complicated Unicode characters from simpler building blocks, e.g.

    fmt.Printf("Hello, %a", "→↘𠃊廿↓田介")

I think that would be a fun way to practice kanji, but I'd much rather just type "seikai" and press enter. Modern IMEs are awesome.
