[PD] unicode symbols and Pd

[Alexandre Torres Porres]

Well, like I said (but I wasn't aware it didn't go to the whole list). It's
a long story, but just note that this is a known issue and there are fixes
for it on github already! ;)

I do a very dirty trick so I can send "C#" to canvases' labels in
[else/display], it requires having to create the object, you can check it
while there's no fix yet.
