Would you please to kind enough to keep it online, I enjoy a good
comedian and our erstwhile unicode expert is one of the best, if not the
best, in this field.
If you do take it offline would you please ask him to stop sending via
google groups, or to take appropriate action to stop the extremely

This is a long-standing ticket: http://bugs.python.org/issue1602 I'm
sure they would welcome your contribution towards a solution. When I
use Windows, I often wish this were solved.
There's also http://bugs.python.org/issue14170 and
http://bugs.python.org/issue15809 amongst others. Contributing towards
a solution is a simple thing to do. Finding a solution isn't as simple
