That's a different issue; IDLE can't handle non-BMP characters. Try it from the terminal if you can - on my Linux systems (Debians and Ubuntus with GNOME and gnome-terminal), the terminal is set to UTF-8 and quite happily accepts the full Unicode range. On Windows, that may well not be the case, though. ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
