Hi Beth,

Thanks for the entertaining post.

I had thought about many of the issues, including directionality of
text, but as you said, an assembler/compiler should just see the
logical order. Some of the other issues, such as non-english labels and
numbers, can be a pain in the arse. Numbers not so much (AFIAK most of
the world recognises the 0..9 numerical set), but labels. The biggest
issue for me, would be combinations or equivalence. How should those be
handled? Well, it appears that the answer (for LuxAsm) is don't. Just
have labels/identifiers in the normal 7bit ASCII range as already
defined by most other assemblers/HLLs.
