Re:The flaws of thinking "Just use Unicode"

It's sort of interesting how unicode solved your problem, but totally ignored the exact same problem in east asia. It's still not possible to have a single unicode text file with japanese and chinese kanji in it. The official unicode answer is to not use plain text; use a rich text format that allows the specification of fonts instead. I sort of think unicode would be a much better global standard if it hadn't tried to merge the different kanji used by over a billion people.
