--- Comment #3 from Tuomas Hietala <tuomas.hiet...@iki.fi> --- Yes, "Basic Latin" is correct in the sense that it's the official name of the Unicode block. But if you don't know it's a name of a Unicode block (and I think most users don't), there's a lot of room for confusion. "ASCII" is most likely a better known term, because it's been around for longer, but the users who understand it might still be in the minority. Possible solutions could be the following: * "Only characters in Basic Latin Unicode block can be entered" The average user would be none the wiser, but at least interested users could search for "Basic Latin Unicode block" on the internet and discover what it contains. * "Only ASCII character can be entered" This would be clear for the more technically oriented users, but not so much for the rest. * "Only characters A-Z, a-z, 0-9 and the most common punctuation marks can be entered" Not an exact definition, but would give the right idea to most users, perhaps? * ""Only Basic Latin (a.k.a. ASCII) characters (A-Z, a-z, 0-9 and the most common punctuation marks) can be entered" Something for everyone? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
