Added quick reference section for adding unicode characters
Mainly using unicode characters in the content of my books/guides to represent keyboard characters, such as arrow keys. It is assumed that these unicode characters make the keybindings easier to understand.

# Unicode Characters | ||
|
||
`SPC i u` shows a pop-up list of [Unicode characters](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Coded_Character_Set) by name, with each name also showing the unicode character. | ||
|
||
The first time `SPC i u` is called the unicode characters are loaded, as spacemacs doesnt load them in by default. Loading should only take a second. | ||
|
||
As the popup list can be narrowed by typing part or all of the name of characters. The list shows a fuzzy match of unicode names that match. | ||
|
||
| Keybindings | Description | | ||
|-------------|----------------------------------------------------------------------------------| | ||
| `SPC i u` | Loads unicode characters and lists them in a popup window. Uses helm completion | | ||

|

`C-c 8 RET` is the classic way to add Unicode 8 characters, which seems to show different symbols, is that unicode 8 and the other unicode 16 perhaps? |
