COPYING
This library implements several algorithms related to the Unicode
Standard, featuring:
• Both C and C++17 bindings, with a complete manual page documentation
set.
• The library has all Unicode mappings compiled in as fast, compact,
lookup table. The library does not need to load the Unicode database
files at startup, every time.
• The library implements lookups uppercase, lowercase, and titlecase
equivalents of a unicode character; grapheme and word breaking rules;
line breaking rules; and the bi-directional algorithm.
• The library implements canonical and compatibility decomposition and
composition of Unicode text; and the Unicode script property.
• The library also implements ancillary functions, like looking up the
unicode character that corresponds to some HTML 4.0 entity (such as
“&”, for example), and determining the normal width or a
double-width status of a unicode character. Also, an adaptation of the
iconv(3) API for this unicode library.
Current status
The current release of the Courier Unicode library is based on the Unicode
15 standard.
