Thank you, Commander Rob :). As a newbie I was suspicious that the phrase "(it is not a single code point)" had some deep implication that I did not understand. Might I suggest directly spelling out the implications on a case by case basis, because I now understand what this is really trying to say is that Go does not combine characters in string and rune literals. The suggestion is to replace the paragraph with: "The source code may contain two code points that represent a character, such as a combining form involving an accent and a letter. If placed in a string literal, this will appear as two code points. If placed in a rune literal, this will result in an error, because it is not a single code point." -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
