Yes. But they have different motivations. The mini-language concept is to design an input format that is convenient for human editor and that is close to the semi-structured data source. I think the benefit from ease of editing and flexibility would justify writing a little parsing code.

You could not. Unicode is an abstract data type. It must be encoded into octets in order to send via socket. And the other end must decode the octets to retrieve the unicode string. Needless to say the encoding scheme must be consistent and understood by both ends. On 18 Feb 2005 11:03:46
