If you want to see a pragmatic, actually working, work-in-progress attempt at better PHP unicode support, see this: https://github.com/krakjoe/ustring It would add a UString class to PHP for Unicode strings. This would make Unicode text manipulation much easier than it is now. And both internal and userland code which accepts strings would already be compatible as it has a __toString method, but new code could also choose to accept UStrings directly. -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/ -- PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
