I agree - grapheme_extract starting at N graphemes and returning a count of graphemes is exactly the same functionality as grapheme_substr, but the other combinations are not covered elsewhere, I think. I cannot think of a solid basis for excluding any of the others. And I don't know how to change the API to make that particular combination 'special' so it can be excluded. =Ed -- PHP Unicode & I18N Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
