Everyone has some beliefs... If I make a bit more on-topic question: What is "satisfied" with ASCII, or what is "we need Unicode", where and what for? What is your "satisfaction" with Unicode? For me it is a font, where images given numbers, ok, then we need obviosly to look at it, e.g. if you make a codec. So you are just stating the fact that font files store them in this order and a txt file in Notepad will show them in correct order? hmm... I just thought you have some idea, e.g. what glyphs you adore esthetically or find especially useful in your life. Which of some 40 images that are needed for _you_ to represent speech and numbers, you find IDK, appealing or annoying, or what? In typesetting, I find annoying caps inculsion, too little space between sentences and not so good separator character design, some flaws in letter design. For development purposes I would need some glyphs for non-printable characters, ok few glyphs more. Tak zachem _nuzhen_ Unikod ?
