Thumbs up on the unicode idea, but national keyboards (i.e. non-english) have already used almost every possible not-strictly-defined-in-EN-keyboards combination of keys for their own characters. In particular, the key combinations above are reprogrammed to something else in my language/keyboard. But, the idea that Python could be made ready for when the keyboards and editors start supporting such characters is a good one (i.e. keep both <= and ≤ for several decades). It's not a far-out idea. I stumbled about a year ago on a programming language that INSISTED on unicode characters like ≤ as well as the rest of mathematical/logical symbols; I don't remember its name but the source code with characters like that looked absolutely beautiful. I suppose that one day, when unicode becomes more used than ascii7, "old" code like current C and python will be considered ugly and unelegant in appearance :) -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
