I know. But the Unicode wreck can't be blamed on the human writing 
system "mess". It created one completely on its own.

Just because there was a problem it don't follow that Unicode was a good

I'm not claiming it is a good solution, but it is the solution we ended up
with that reasonably covers a lot of the problem space. Given that:
 - it covers a wide and very irregular problem space
 - it 
 - it is, due to the problem scope, a design by committee
ending with a solution being bit of a mess is hardly avoidable.

It has the property of "working well enough most of the time", which is
already a big impediment to anyone spending the time, money and brains
in order to:
 - come up with a New And Improved Design That Surely Has No Warts
 - establish it as the new standard

Honestly: not happening.

Kind regards,
           Alex.

I know that Unicode is here to stay. Said as much before. But it has 
introduced a whole range of problems that people tend to pretend don't 
exist. The most immediate one coming to my mind are all kind of scammers 
creating fake domains to phish stuff. Using known, trusted company 
names, but letters replaced by things that look visually equivalent, but 
actually are other characters, and then through those domains fool 
people to give information, such as passwords, account numbers, money, 
and god knows what else.

A big part of the problem is that Unicode don't even seem to have known 
what problem is was supposed to solve. Was it about representing 
different characters that have different meanings? Was it about 
representing same characters but with different visual effects? Was it 
supposed to be some kind of generic system to modify characters through 
some clever system design?
As it is, it's sortof all of these, but none of them properly.

And it makes it a hellhole to deal with.

But yes. Now it exists. We are not going to replace it.

No? The problem is that ASCII only represent the USA view of the alphabet.

I discovered this when I tried to set up spam filters and couldn't 
figure out why they weren't working.

It's supposed to be about the meanings of the characters. Capital 'A' in 
any font is the same Unicode character, but two characters that look 
identical but have different meanings are two.

The biggest problem I have with any Unicode representation except (I 
think) UTF-32 is that a program has no way of knowing how long a string 
is without encoding/decoding it. Given a string of characters in some 
codepage, how many bytes does it occupy when converted to UTF-8? Given a 
UTF-8 character string, how many character positions does it occupy, 
say, for example, when displayed on a screen?

UTF-32 doesn't help you there either, because there are combining characters.

How long in codepoints? Easy to determine.

How long in characters/graphemes? Not so easy in general.

Is there any other (real or hypothetical) encoding that would have
made this possible? I don’t think so.

Except it isn't. You have several codepoints for capital 'A'.
How about U+1D00 - LATIN LETTER SMALL CAPITAL A ?
Or U+ff21 - FULLWIDTH LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A

And then you have the ridiculous mathematical symbol 'A', which Unicode 
have defined in normal, italic, bold, italic+bold, script, script bold, 
script italic, script italic bold... And it goes on with fraktur 
versions, sans-serif versions, monospace versions. (U+1D400 for a start 
down that rabbit hole...)

Heck, you even have U+1F110 - PARENTHESIZED LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A.
So a latin capital A with parenthesises around it. That needed its own 
code point???

So, you can see that even some font selections creeped in to Unicode, as 
well as rendering of things in bold or italic. And all kind of other 
crazy variants and details.

True. However, that has nothing to do with Unicode as such, but the

Unicode has combining "characters", so to know how many "real"
character you have you need to combine.  IIUC for Korean Hangul 
character can be buit from 3 separate pieces, each taking one code
point, but also there are "precomposed" combinations taking a
single code point.  My reading of description is that 3 pieces
version and precomposed one are supposed to display the same.

There are also code point for ligatures, for most puproses ligature 
fi' counts as two characters, but is a single code point.  Terminal
may display it in a single cell, but arguably for noice monspaced
display one should expand ligatures.  For display we have single
cell characters and double width one, so to know width one needs
at least table giving width of codepoint and add widths of all
codepoints.

I think they feel the term “character” is ambiguous, so they use
“grapheme” instead.

One question here, why should there be a codepoint for fi in UCS? How did
this come to be? It does look like the kind of choice that just creates
an accessibility issue (fi as separate letters will display better, and
whatever is rendering can choose to deploy ligatures, while fi as noted
is two chars in a single glyph, and it not working well in monospaced
display does show precisely the issue with it).

But maybe there is some reasoning or history here I'm overlooking? Or
was this because some other existing charset had ligatures?

Yes, it's a font issue. No, I'm not planning on addressing that now.

I think Unicode offers lots of tables of information specifically to make 
this sort of thing easier to manage.

NamesList.txt is a particularly handy one.

That's not actually a problem.  Punycode has been developed to deal
with it.

All software should now be offering a dual display of all FQDNs as
both Unicode and Punycode.

As opposed to scammers posting as J0HNNY BILLQUIST, or Johnny Bi11quist,
or JOHNNY BILLQUlST in ordinary ASCII. More alphabets compound the
problem, sure, but it was always there.

It's pretty much never about "visual effects" although there are semantic
differences to some visually similar characters. Math is a big offender
in wanting ℤ meaning something different than Z or 𝐙. But you could argue
that Japanese style "fullwidth" Z is a visual effect.

I would say the problem Unicode is trying to solve, albeit with some
inconsistency, is the communication of all written languages in a
standardized system of encoding. There are huge problems in that many
written languages have implicit presentation rules based on context. The
fullwidth Roman alphaphet, for example, is there because English letters
in Japanese text are supposed to be the same size to fit the grid of the
surrounding material.

At different stages Unicode has solved this problem in different ways.
More recently there has been a trend towards encoding things with
combining characters (backspace overstrike style in the old manual
typewriter days) and with ligatures of a sort. Flags being represented
as a pair of "regional indicator" letters, where the letters are the
same country codes used in DNS, is an example of that.

Agreed. I see only one issue clearly limited to UTF-8. In most of the actual
writing systems the characters are displayed from left to right, others
from right to left and, to my knowledge only old scripts, in
boustrophedon. And UTF-8 takes care of it, but not every tool takes care
of it the same way. The issue being writing code in English and comments
in Arabic on the same line. Poorly done, it just doesn't compile and
it's not an issue. But if an attacker want to use it, your text editor
may make you believe the code is commented when the compiler doesn't
know it's compiled. And some mischievous code can be executed when you
believe it's commented.

Of course, the rendering isn't considered by the encoding. It's the
purpose of the font. I choose fonts which doesn't make me think about
the character written. The 0 and O doesn't have to be similar. Like 1
and l and I can be easily differentiated. If it's not the case on your
computer and if that matters, change the font, not the encoding.

Yes. And it wasn't a small thing to solve considering the way too limited
ASCII was everywhere.
