That's technically true, but where will you find a JSON document in the wild that contains "\u0000"? JSON parsers written in C won't be able to handle it either, since AFAIK they all return C strings. You probably won't be able to store it in a database either, since they use C APIs somewhere in the process. I am frankly sick of tools bending over backwards to support NUL. -- John Cowan http://www.ccil.org/~cowan co...@ccil.org Uneasy lies the head that wears the Editor's hat! --Eddie Foirbeis Climo _______________________________________________ Chicken-hackers mailing list Chicken-hackers@nongnu.org https://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/chicken-hackers
