I did some but couldn't find anything apart using unicode in strings. I didn't mention in this mail but I used to in my first try but actually sent it to python-ideas-owners by mistake. I didn't know about the term "identifier", thanks for this. > I doubt that. Variable names should be meanigful, not "smiley face" or "eggplant". We could argue that having a happy smiley or sad one is more meaningful in if statements. I don't agree with this but it doesn't feel bad to me either. For emojis, it just makes the code more colorful and a bit more friendly in some cases. And I feel like having fun and beautiful looking code is a sufficient argument by itself. But I get why you don't agree and that's why I submitted the idea :) > For many people, support for many non-ASCII identifiers is poor. They will see a series of boxes, something like this If we add this in Python 3.9+ imo, people are up to date and would use a proper editors. I know the community is conservative but moving the lines is possible too. > Unicode allows us to play games like this We can already do this is already ( https://github.com/satwikkansal/wtfpython#-skipping-lines) so it's not a problem to me. It is a problem but not related to unicode. Thanks for the feedback
