Yes, you are right, I meant ASCII.  I think XCKD mentioned typing something you
are saying and it all getting jumbled.

Why would I want to use Unicode for simple keyboard input?  For non english
users?  Well let me tell you what they can do...  Joking!!!

I guess I could enable unicode while needing text input, and then disable it
during a game, correct?

But is unicode the best way to go?
