I'm still wearing scars on my brain from the times I worked as a web developer. One of them is the ability to immediately recite awoken in the middle of the night the names of ISO-8859-2 and CP-1250 (and what's the difference between them[1]), the de jure and de facto standards of Central European character encodings. It. Hurts. [1] For my language it's exactly 3 characters (times two cases): ?, ?, ?; the rest (six more) is the same in both. |

ASCII as far as I can see,
Is all anything ever needs to be. ASCII rhymes with easy, but Unicode rhymes with horned toad. and that's one great big load of ....something. ASCII, you see? |
