Re: Unicode Support


"Chewy509" asked about UTF-source-code:

Even the idea may not find many friends, ..

*tool size may explode if several UTF16-sets needs support
*loss on source-portability and general readability
*Net/NG-bandwidth
(my news-reader use 'Courier New, text-only', so I'd see only garbage)

...my new disassembler got separated decoder/interpreter routines,
so it is already prepared to output any syntax with any character-set.
At the moment it just output ASCII, UTF could be added easy.

But I think English is the proper language for technicians and
programmers. Without a global communication standard we had to
rely on Babel-fish, and its name include 'Babylonian confusion' ;)
