2011-05-06 Thread Martin v . Löwis
Martin v. Löwis added the comment: I think what they mean is a better representation from an Android API, such as UChar32 from utils/AndroidUnicode.h. I agree that it's not worthwhile trying to port Python to those Android versions that have a single-byte wchar_t definition. David, I
