In his latest Python-XML column, Uche Ogbuji delves broadly and deeply into the world of Unicode, especially with regard to processing XML in Python.
In this one I started out talking about a quick spot check for Unicode compliance in XML tools, then went on to present some tips on Python's Unicode API. The intent was not to be comprehensive. I cherry-picked the particular Unicode facilities I tend to use the most. As one person mentioned in the comments, there are even more means at your disposal than I cover. I'll get to some of them in part 2, in the next column installment.
