Re: Display of undisplayable characters: \U01F3A8 instead of diamond

I cannot understand why you used so much of your time and energy to restore a half-broken behavior (diamonds instead of undisplayable characters), when it would not have taken you more than fifteen minutes to get a correct behavior (no undisplayable characters anymore, or very few undisplayable characters).

I have to expect that switching to a different kind of terminal will reveal other problems.


That's unlikely (the only known problem is for users who use a mouse, which you said you don't), but even if that were the case, that's how progress goes: leaving a stable position with known problems to reach a position in which some of these problems are solved, while taking the risk of facing other yet unknown problems.
