I would prefer using utf symbols than changing colours.

I am using the following function using hex code for Black Rightwards Arrowhead

(defun typex-camelsens ()

  "Splits CamelCase phrases using separator."

  (interactive)

  (setq glasses-separator "\u27A4")

  (glasses-mode))

How can I pass an arbitrary hex code interactively, besides using a default?
