Yes, sorry. Then I disagree with "as long as char is a unicode code unit, that's the way that it goes", since myString.front should then return a code unit, whereas it actually returns a code point. >> Unicode operations should be supported by a different class that >> is really a lazy range of dchar implemented as an undelying char[], with >> no length, index, or stride operator, and appropriate optimizations. > > I can agree with this, but the benefits over what we already have are nigh > zilch. I think no one here as any illusion about changing this in D2. However, this class could be introduced in phobos right now, without changing anything about string. It would simply be a bit safer than strings. -- Christophe
