I disagree. Unicode support comes for free with Python3+ while C++ it still is a piece of crap (or something that you'll have to pass to external libraries). The C++ standard library is nowhere nearly as densely packed with features than Python's. For every little thing you need some external dependencies. Language semantics aren't enough to translate one language into another. Best regards, Henrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
