Hi,

Yes, in Mozart 2 all strings are made of characters that are Unicode code points.

Cheers,

Sébastien

Good to hear! I was just disappointed with the lack of unicode support
in Mercury. It's a great language, but that makes it unusable for me.

I've searched around on the web, but couldn't find it.

Cheers,
Volker

But, is the unicode support complete? Is there a unicode-aware
function, which returns the upper case of a character? (Mercury, which
has "partial" unicode support, doesn'n.) Is there a reasonable, unicode
aware character collation function?

Hello,

No, there is nothing like that in the standard library, I'm afraid.

One could still use an external library, such as glib... I'll have to
dig into Mozart's foreign language interface.

Cheers,
Volker
