Even if I have known about Unicode for a long time everything about it seems to be complicated. You copy something that in one environment is different but looks the same over to another an then it is the same. Autoatic conversions happen sometimes and sometimes not. It is even worse when you have ASCII that looks the same and is sometimes codepage numbers sometimes UTF8 and then Unicode. Sometimes you have BOM in files and sometimes not etc.
