In earlier versions of @command{ponysay} only the output truncationed supported
|

Universal Character Set, though handcoded UTF-8 character counting. Now @command{ponysay}
|
||||
lets Python decode the data, Python store all 31 bits of a character in as one
|
||||
character, not in UTF-16 as some other languages does, this means that the code
|
||||
is agnostic to the chararacter encoding. However in Unicode 6.1 their are four ranges
|
||||
of combining characters, these do not take up any width in proper terminal, we
|
||||
their for have a class in the code named @code{UCS} that help us take them into
|
||||
consideration when determine the length of strings.
|
||||
|
||||
Some ponies have names contains non-ASCII characters, read about it in
|
||||
@ref{Environment variables}. The UCS names are stored in the file @code{share/ucsmap},
|
||||
in it lines that are not empty and does not start with a hash (@code{#}) are parse, and
|
||||
contains a UCS name and a ASCII:ised name. The UCS name comes first, followed by the
|
||||
ASCII:ised name that it should replace or link to. The two names are separated by and
|
||||
simple left to right arrow character [U+2192], optionally with surrounding white space.

For the palette to be correct, which is especially important when you draw ponies, you

must not redefine the colours in the range 16 to 255 (inclusive).
