Coincidentally, this would be my response to the root comment as well. If anything more complicated than a box doesn't belong in a Terminal, how do we expect speakers of non-western languages to use the Terminal?
- usrbinbash 5y agoI specififcally wrote "my terminal", not "a Terminal". I am well aware, and supportive, of the need to encode the entirety of human script and written symbolics in a unified format. And the reason why my terminal doesn't need anything beyond basic modifying diacritic marks and single-codepoint symbols (like blocks and line characters for text-user-interfaces) is because I do not use it to write prose is a variety of languages, I use it to communicate with a machine, administrating systems, designing backend software, and analysing machine-written logfiles.
