Add cross-reference to alternative syntaxes for Unicode
These alternative syntaxes allow you to specify Unicode codepoints
using only ASCII, which helps avoid decoding issues.
* doc/emacs/custom.texi (Init Non-ASCII): Add cross reference to
"General Escape Syntax" in the Emacs Lisp Reference Manual.

To bind non-@acronym{ASCII} keys, you must use a vector (@pxref{Init

non-@acronym{ASCII} characters will be interpreted as meta keys. For
