Why? If both forms didn't exist, the user couldn't tell whether all the letters of his alphabet were precomposed or not, if the program was set up right. If O with right hook looks like q and Q, and sorts after p and before q, the user could never realize that it wasn't precomposed. -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
