I now have this code (you can add that to cont-new.tex if needed):
\def\executeXMLcharacter#1#2\relax
{\if#1x%
\@EA\noexecuteXMLhexcharacter
\else
\@EA\doexecuteXMLdeccharacter
\fi#1#2\relax}
\def\noexecuteXMLhexcharacter x#1\relax
{\uppercase{\doexecuteXMLhexcharacter#1\relax}}
\unexpanded\def\getXMLcharacter#1%
{\ifXMLrawentities
\@EA\firstofoneargument
\else\ifcsname\@@XMLentity:#1\endcsname
\@EAEAEA\getXMLentity
\else
\@EAEAEA\unicodechar % was: \rawcharacter
\fi\fi{#1}}
\def\doexecuteXMLhexcharacter#1\relax{\getXMLcharacter{"#1}}
\def\doexecuteXMLdeccharacter#1\relax{\getXMLcharacter {#1}}
section of mail for adam -) :
the old code originates from before the time we had those unicode vector files;
this mechanism still permits overloading, like
\defineXMLentity [1234] {Adam}
\defineXMLentity ["1234] {Eve}
and since we dislike the " there, we can better define:
\unexpanded\def\getXMLdeccharacter#1%
{\ifXMLrawentities
\@EA\firstofoneargument
\else\ifcsname\@@XMLentity:#1\endcsname
\@EAEAEA\getXMLdecentity
\else
\@EAEAEA\unicodechar
\fi\fi{#1}}
\unexpanded\def\getXMLhexcharacter#1%
{\ifXMLrawentities
\@EA\firstofoneargument
\else\ifcsname\@@XMLentity:x#1\endcsname
\@EAEAEA\getXMLhexentity
\else
\@EAEAEA\unicodehexchar
\fi\fi{#1}}
\def\unicodehexchar#1%
{\unicodechar{"#1}}
\let\getXMLcharacter\getXMLdeccharacter
\def\getXMLdecentity#1{\getXMLentity {#1}}
\def\getXMLhexentity#1{\getXMLentity{x#1}}
\def\doexecuteXMLhexcharacter#1\relax{\getXMLhexcharacter{#1}}
\def\doexecuteXMLdeccharacter#1\relax{\getXMLdeccharacter{#1}}
\defineXMLentity[8218] {Adam}
\defineXMLentity[x007D]{Eve}
now it works nicely
