- libtext-unidecode-perl: Text::Unidecode -- US-ASCII transliterations of Unicode text
It often happens that you have non-Roman text data in Unicode, but
you can't display it -- usually because you're trying to
show it to a user via an application that doesn't support Unicode,
or because the fonts you need aren't accessible. You could
represent the Unicode characters as "???????" or
"\15BA\15A0\1610. ..", but that's nearly useless to the user who
actually wants to read what the text says.
.
What Text::Unidecode provides is a function, unidecode(...) that
takes Unicode data and tries to represent it in US-ASCII characters
(i.e., the universally displayable characters between 0x00 and
0x7F). The representation is
almost always an attempt at transliteration -- i.e., conveying,
in Roman letters, the pronunciation expressed by the text in
some other writing system. (See the example in the synopsis.)
