Others have explained this in more detail, but IMO left out the essential clue: character *repertoire* and character *encoding* are different things. (In this case, Unicode is a repertoire. utf-8, utf-16, etc. are encodings.)
yes i agree with that except their are repertoire wider than other isn't it ?
i thought utf-16, using more bytes than utf-8 in your analogy, is a wider repertoire than utf-8 ?
ps, is applescript utf-16-able ???
Yes. In fact, under Mac OS X (I don't know if this is since 10.0 or later) AppleScrpt reads and writes UTF-16 by default. (Well, at least when you work with class Unicode text. Maybe not for class string? -- I'd have to check.)
as the file system, i mean.
