Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> writes:With the exception of Unicode. If you check the standard, two Unicode codepoints (i.e. the numeric value that gets stored on disk) *can* map to the same character, hence they are the same. They don't just look the same, they are the same character -- even if the codepoints are different (i.e. precomposed vs. decomposed characters). In fact, part of the Unicode standard deals with that. (Technically, Unicode calls it equivalence, but what the hey). In other words, Unicode treats e.g. both U+0065 and U+00E9 as fundamentally the same character. This comes even more into play in such alphabets as Hangul (Korean) and the Japanese Kana. -- JM Ibanez Software Architect Orange & Bronze Software Labs, Ltd.
