This package contains codecs for transliterating ISO 10646 texts into
best-effort representations using smaller coded character sets (ASCII,
ISO 8859, etc.). The translation tables used by the codecs are from
the 'transtab' collection by Markus Kuhn.
.
Three types of transliterating codecs are provided:
.
"long", using as many characters as needed to make a natural replacement.
For example, \u00e4 LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS 'ä' will be replaced
with 'ae'.
.
"short", using the minimum number of characters to make a replacement.
For example, \u00e4 LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS 'ä' will be replaced
with 'a'.
.
"one", only performing single character replacements. Characters that can
not be transliterated with a single character are passed through unchanged.
For example, \u2639 WHITE FROWNING FACE '☹' will be passed through unchanged.
