Trying to disprove you a bit: http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51G6CH9XFFL._SL500_AA300_.jpg http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51k7TmosPdL._SL500_AA300_.jpg http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/518UzMeLFCL._SL500_AA300_.jpg but classical typographies seem to write either the uppercase Œ or the lowercase œ. That said, I wonder why Unicode even includes ligatures like ff. Sounds like mission creep to me (and horrible annoyances for people like us). ---------- nosy: +pitrou _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue12736> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
