I am late on this subthread, but FWIW and FYI with Python 2.4.2 and Idle 1.1.2
on WinXP I can use non-ascii identifiers transparently both in modules and at
the prompt, for instance
>>> grüzi = râle = niño = ça = True
>>> grüzi
True
I thought it was a provided feature, but scanning the subthread gave the
contrary impression. Should we expect disappearance of the property ?
Best, bb
