Hi Stephan,
> I would expect the positions of 'b' being 2 and 3, resp., as that are the lengths of the strings as returned by unicode.utf8.len. However, unicode.utf8.find seems to have another notion of the length of a string.
It is documented: (Well, sort of, you need to downlaod the slunicode library and look into 'unittest'.)
-- NOTE: find positions are in bytes for all ctypes!
-- use ascii.sub to cut found ranges!
-- this is a) faster b) more reliable
