NAME
Text::Undiacritic - remove diacritics from a string
VERSION
This document describes Text::Undiacritic 0.01
SYNOPSIS
use Text::Undiacritic qw(undiacritic);
$ascii_string = undiacritic( $czech_string );
DESCRIPTION
Changes characters with diacritics into their base characters.
Also changes into base character in cases where UNICODE does not provide
a decomposition.
E.g. all characters '... WITH STROKE' like 'LATIN SMALL LETTER L WITH
STROKE' do not have a decomposition. In the latter case the result will
be 'LATIN SMALL LETTER L'.
Removing diacritics is useful for matching text independent of spelling
variants.
SUBROUTINES/METHODS
undiacritic
$ascii_string = undiacritic( $characters );
Removes diacritics from $characters and returns a simplified character
string.
The input string must be in character modus, i.e. UNICODE code points.
