Not to be confused with Unicode.

UniCode is an esoteric programming language where every character in unicode is one instruction, and therefore anything is valid UniCode syntax, even if it causes run-time errors. One issue, because of this, is the inability to have comments directly in UniCode programs.

The original pages about UniCode are available at revision 11144 (the original page created in 2008) and revision 18209 (a minor fix after two years). However, this language has been stuck on "Work In Progress" for four years before User:NSQX thought that it has been a "Work In Progress" for too long and rewrote this page.
