But then I would extend the same challenge to you. Post a piece of code that follows the pattern that you predict, and then see if the actual example of not-so-well-written, non-ASCII-pure code can resonate in the minds of folks who aren't able to imagine the validity of your points without an example in front of them. I know that Ping has produced one example of deceptive non-ASCII-pure code, but it didn't really sway me, even though I've been basically sympatethic to his overall conservatism about either keeping ASCII purity or introducing Unicode only with some proper safeguards. ____________________________________________________________________________________ It's here!
