Arguably, R6RS identifiers should have been fed through normalization form KC, as Unicode recommends, before comparison. That wasn't done; I don't know why, given the presence of string-normalize-nfkc in the Unicode library. -- John Cowan [email protected] http://ccil.org/~cowan Original line from The Warrior's Apprentice by Lois McMaster Bujold: "Only on Barrayar would pulling a loaded needler start a stampede toward one." English-to-Russian-to-English mangling thereof: "Only on Barrayar you risk to lose support instead of finding it when you threat with the charged weapon." _______________________________________________ r6rs-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.r6rs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/r6rs-discuss
