There's a price though: this code does not, and never could, of course, support all those unicode characters. In other words, it is relatively unimportant whether your or mine applications would preserve unicode characters or not, since ALWAYS there will be some ported code which would not,

I don't think anyone is saying that all these other code bases being available are bad.

But, in the context of using Cocoa, where everything is Unicode based, it is best to be aware that the standard regex doesn't support Unicode, and that there are solutions (both the MOKit and OmniRegex) which do.

Cocoa apps really need to support Unicode to be available to all user languages.
