So they’re going through their whole Delphi codebase to give us upside-down text?

Upside down characters? I’m guessing they are not part of the klingon character set.
How is anyone supposed to take Unicode seriously with stuff like that in it?

A lot of the upside down characters are normal characters.
p = d
n = u
etc. . .
Some are the same either way, like ’s’
and then others are used in other languages, or more complex typographical English characters. Just take a look in a pronunciation key in your dictionary and you will see all the vowels upside down.
