From: Yukihiro Matsumoto Date: 2008-11-28T18:43:38+09:00 Subject: [ruby-core:20147] [Feature #715](Rejected) Ruby interpreter should understand UTF-8 symbols with special meaning Issue #715 has been updated by Yukihiro Matsumoto. Status changed from Open to Rejected It's worse than you thought. Trust me. We had similar temptation to use Japanese characters in our programs.
