Hi Ross.
Thanks a lot for your clarifying. I didn't think my post could be an
Unicode frame.
I don't know this mailing list is the right place talking about
Unicode issue, but as for me, a million codespace which UTF-16 brings
is not enough. It presume that same characters has a same codepoint

He explictly said that character set he wanted to use wouldn't fit in
UTF-16.

Akihiro Kayama in his original post made it clear that he wanted to use
a character set larger than entire Unicode code space.

No it doesn't.
UTF-16 is a "Unicode Transcription Format", meaning that it is a
mechanism for representing all unicode code points, even the ones with
ordinals greater than 0x, using series of 16-

Thanks for your suggestion. I'm currently using an usual list as a

Have you tried using Python compiled in Wide Unicode mode
(--enable-unicode=ucs4)? You get native UTF-32/UCS-4 strings then,
which should be enough for most purposes.

Maybe you can create your class using an array of 'L' with the array
standard module.

Hi all.
I would like to ask how I can implement string-like class using tuple
or list. Does anyone know about some example codes of pure python
implementation of string-like class?
Because I am trying to use Python for a text processing which is
composed of a large character set. As the
