        So… UTF-8 interpreted as ISO-8859-1? You have failed Unicode college >:(

            And here I was typing out iso-8859-1 like a scrub to make sure I wasn’t misremembering the encoding when doing the analogous thing in python…

      0-127, top bit is always 0.

        i thought the top bit was originally 0 or 1 depending on the evilness/odiousness of the rest of the number, as a parity check.

          The standard itself is 7-bit, since wires were deemed more valuable than endpoint logic for the teletype machines way back then. If you’re running it on an 8-bit byte machine you could do it either way, although I’m not sure what the point in parity checking individual characters is. Modern software uses 0.

    You’ve been able to do diacritical marks with ASCII for over thirty years. It’s already standard. alt+0233

    Yeah let’s drop wide characters, it was a bad idea. Let’s simplify… also let’s convert all porn back to ASCII art.

        Not true.

        the Prince symbol is not eligible for inclusion in Unicode, which “does not encode personal characters, nor does it encode logos.”
