Part of the reason it's unsolved is that there are many different ways
you might want to identify the character. Are you looking for a glyph
by name? Grab the unicodedata module (or the \N escape) and print
something out. (Works only if you know the exact name. A fuzzy match
tool would be handy, and would be reasonably easy to build on top of
unicodedata. Someone's probably done that already, but if not, it
wouldn't be a particularly long script.) Are you trying to type text
in a different script? Transliteration from/to Latin letters is
probably the best way - either as an input method (I can right-click
an entry field and select Cyrillic, and then "stop" comes out as
"стоп" - hey look, it translated it into Russian as well!), or as a
dedicated transliteration script. Trying to type Latin letters with
diacriticals? Dead key support is most likely to be the simplest -
type the diacritical, then the base letter, and it enters the combined
form. Or maybe set your keyboard so that Alt-` emits U+0300 COMBINING
GRAVE ACCENT, and then type the base letter followed by Alt-` to add
an accent. Not 100% sure what you want? Have a text file with all the
characters you can't type and often want to use. Cumbersome, maybe,
but not as bad as some other options. :)

Use 'turtle.mainloop' instead.
