It has not. There are two kinds of "i": with and without dots: two different letters, 4 different chars (upper and lower case of the 2 letters). They are not unified. Now, the default pair used in almost all languages is the one with a dot for the lowercase, and the one without dot for the uppercase. So the default pairing is that one; only for Turkish and Azerbaidjani the upercasing and lowercasin rules are different. -- Ki �a vos v�ye b�n, Pablo Saratxaga http://www.srtxg.easynet.be/ PGP Key available, key ID: 0x8F0E4975 -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
