|
|
This package provides conversion in both directions between UTF-8
|
|
Unicode and more than thirty 7-bit ASCII equivalents, including
|
|
RFC 2396 URI format and RFC 2045 Quoted Printable format, the
|
|
representations used in HTML, SGML, XML, OOXML, the Unicode
|
|
standard, Rich Text Format, POSIX portable charmaps, POSIX locale
|
|
specifications, and Apache log files, and the escapes used for
|
|
including Unicode in Ada, C, Common Lisp, Java, Pascal, Perl,
|
|
Postscript, Python, Scheme, and Tcl.
|
|
|
|
Such ASCII equivalents are useful when including Unicode text in
|
|
program source, when debugging, and when entering text into web
|
|
programs that can handle the Unicode character set but are not
|
|
8-bit safe. For example, MovableType, the blog software, truncates
|
|
posts as soon as it encounters a byte with the high bit
|
|
set. However, if Unicode is entered in the form of HTML numeric
|
|
character entities, Movable Type will not garble the post.
|
|
|
|
It also provides ways of converting non-ASCII characters to
|
|
similar ASCII characters, e.g. by stripping diacritics.
