I'll have to side slightly against Lars on this one.
I agree with Lars that any software that doesn't support these is broken,
that Unicode looks better than other ad-hoc formatting.
If the software works, often the fonts won't. Personally if I'd need to
see the source and find characters missing from my font, I'd consider my
setup broken and spend some time making it better.
However, what if you're:
- on a locked-down work laptop?
- just an innocent (maybe Windows XP?) user without any kind of environment
tweaks that doesn't fully understand Unicode and doesn't even know what's
wrong?
Being comfortable in my coding environment is a top priority for me but
this is far from being general among people I work with.
My 2c,
Vlad
