Given that the typical keyboard has none of those characters,
maintaining code that used any of them would be a royal pain.
Note that I'm not trying to argue either way, it's just that I
used to think of Walter's stance on D and Unicode as:
"D would fully embrace Unicode if only editors/debuggers etc.
would embrace it too"
But now I read:
D supports Unicode in identifiers because C and C++ do, and we
want to be able to interoperate with them."
So I wonder what changed. I guess it's mostly answered in the
first reply:
When I originally started with D, I thought non-ASCII
identifiers with Unicode was a good idea. I've since slowly
become less and less enthusiastic about it.
