> As I understand it, that was the original spec, which both Knuth and McIlroy wrote to. I agree that it is limited as you say.
My new opinion is that great programmers will go beyond the spec and make their software handle Unicode in cases like this. It's the right thing to do. If the spec didn't require units tests does that mean you don't write unit tests? No, you do it anyway because it's the right way to do things. BTW I'm still working on being a great programmer myself.
