Both... this idea will only become none-absurd when unicode will become as prevalent as ascii, i.e. unicode keyboards, universal support under almost every application, and so on. Even if you can easly type it on your macintosh, good luck using it while using said macintosh to ssh or telnet to a remote server and trying to type unicode... -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
