since i missed the rather golden oppertunity to sleep in years ago and instead
scripted the conversion from the the unicode-published UnicodeData.txt
to the various plan 9 files, it was sadly trivial to convert and publish the new
data. so we can now fully appreciate such gems as the blues brothers in unicode:
+ 01f576 dark sunglasses
too bad there's no "carrie fisher with bazooka". :-) all the new files are up in
9atom.

that's what carrie fisher with the bazooka is for. blasting the idea that
formerly understandable os + incomprehensible language for stick-building characters
= goodness.
back to skokie, il. and sadly they left her out!
:-) :-)
on the other hand, there are some bits, like variable-height lines that would be
immediately beneficial for code. ∑ shouldn't get chopped off.

They had to leave something for the upcoming 8.0 standard. :-)
(Blues Brothers - what a wonderful movie. I saw it again a few months
ago for the first time in (ahem) decades. To quote Terry Pratchett:
"We're on a mission from Glod." :-)

I don't have my Pratchett collection on board any more, so I can't provide the direct reference.

Define *that*!
I still have the same Ray Bans from 1979. The new prescription lenses are getting a bit more expensive, thought :-)
