That's neat, but it's a property of the OS, though, not of IP addresses themselves :) (doesn't work on Windows btw)

  >(doesn't work on Windows btw) Works in Gitbash in Microsoft Terminal, which is cheating a bit, but doesn't introduce a different OS. Edit: Works in Powershell too.

  Works in Firefox on Linux for me. Probably some form of unicode normalization? http://①②⑦.⓪.⓪.①:8000 http://xn--orhcp.xn--mvh.xn--mvh.xn--orh:8000 -> http://127.0.0.1:8000 http://127.0.0.1:8000

    Oh wow, I think HN normalized the unicode with punycode since it's a URL. I submitted with ①②⑦.⓪.⓪.① inside the http:// http:// and :8000 And the punicode version also works for me :)

      Just tried both versions in Firefox on Linux, they work for me too.

        PaleMoon browser refuses to open the xn--orhcp link, and shows nothing in the status bar for it. Right click doesn't give the option to open it either, only bookmark.

        Yup, same here too. Something cool I just noticed, Firefox converts that link to 127.0.0.1:8000 in the status bar when hovering over it.

We should be able to spell out IPv4 and IPv6 addresses in WingDings. EDIT: WingDings is the Grandparents to Emojis.

  Codepage 437 is the great grandparent: ♥♦♣♠ edit: 0x01="smiley face white on black", 0x02="smiley face black on white" were filtered by HN

    Wow, I thought HN filtered all emojis. TIL.

    Its so funny you state that, I wanted to use "great grandparents" but I made the false assumption that the HN audience wouldnt have identified, but holy crap we do. I think we need a knowledge archive asap.... we are going to start dying off soon. The next decade is going to decimate some minds.

This requires a terminal or shell with Unicode normalization.
