No, they are encodings for codepoints, not "characters" (whatever that means). Michael Schnell, your posts are completely out of topic. Unicode related topics clearly pull you like a magnet and then you loose all control and start to proclaim your grand plan for a string revamp. It can continue for months as we remember from past years. You should stop writing in this thread now. I agree with Mattias.
