FWIW, I think ord_at or a similarly named method sounds like a good idea. It's simple, and it's a good future alternative to the Ruby 1.8 and earlier behaviour of String#[] (when given a Fixnum argument). <snip> > Anyway, I can see why encoding issues and multi-byte character issues > argue strongly for representing characters as a kind of String.

I think a Character class could be a good idea, as I felt slightly uncomfortable in the past indexing into a string and being returned a Fixnum, and whilst returning a String containing one character is an improvement, from a purely aesthetic perspective I would prefer to be returned a Character (derived from a String), and have methods designed to act on characters factored out into this Character class. However I am not a Unicode or Ruby internals or language API expert, so I don't have the same level of insight to add as others in this thread. Matt
