Question

Ok, I know this is a strange question, but there is a ‘standard’ (fan-wise at least) Unicode support for the Klingon alphabet, and since code can be written in Unicode with no problem, that means it is possible to write Kode with Klingon tokens( vars, function names, etc…).

For the record I’ve written C++ in Japanese and it works, so K++ in Klingon should work too. But I don’t know of any text editor with support for Klingon. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

Not likely, especially when you consider rule 9 of the KLINGON GUIDE To Writing Perfect Code

“Indentation?! I will show you how to indent when I indent your skull!”

and number 7 does not bode well for any editor:

“Klingon function calls do not have ‘parameters.’ They have ‘arguments’ . . . and they ALWAYS WIN THEM!”

[Seriously, this is an interesting Unicode editor problem]

After all, ITunes has a license agreement in Klingon!

And you need the right keyboard, off course \o/

Now… may be you can try to ‘Google it’ 😉
