Hi Rebols,

I stumbled over this today:

... It's no accident that the latest development version of Perl
lets you name your variables with any characters that are considered
to be alphanumeric in Unicode. That includes ideographs. There 
are a billion people in China. And I want them to be able to pass 
notes to each other written in Perl. I want them to be able to write
poetry in Perl.
...

(Larry Wall, in the O'Reilly book "Open Sources")

Though Unicode would bloat the code, this seems a very good reason
to include it. Given that Rebol is called a communication language.


regards,

Ingo
