	fmt.Println(strconv.QuoteRuneToGraphic('🙊'))
	fmt.Println("----")

	fmt.Println(strconv.QuoteRuneToGraphic('\u263a'))
	fmt.Println(strconv.QuoteRuneToGraphic('\U0001f648'))
	fmt.Println(strconv.QuoteRuneToGraphic('\U0001f649'))
	fmt.Println(strconv.QuoteRuneToGraphic('\U0001f64a'))
	fmt.Println("----")

	fmt.Println(strconv.QuoteRuneToGraphic('\u000a'))
