Will the standard repertoire exclude Cyrillic or full-with ASCII? If so, I (Japanese) will disable the hook because full-with ASCII characters are not ambiguous to me. Russian people may not want to use the repertoire, also. I think ambiguity will occur when we meet with unfamiliar characters. So choosing repertoire everybody can accept will be difficult. For Python identifiers, it is good idea to select a repertoire for my project. But the repertoire is best used with such tool as PyChecker. repr() is not necessary to check the repertoire. _______________________________________________ Python-3000 mailing list Python-3000@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-3000 Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-3000/archive%40mail-archive.com
