The issue of having : be a word break character in the main rules and pushing the Swedish/Finnish behavior into a locale was raised with the Unicode Technical Committee, and the decision was that wouldn't be the correct behavior. The en_US_POSIX locale behavior was then added specifically at Apple's request, that being considered the correct locale for behavior specific to programmers.

This is my locale:

# env | grep LANG
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

If I grab from CFLocale, then it shows en_US_POSIX.


I run this in Script Editor:

words of "1e:c2"

-->{"1e:c2"}

Please explain.
