NAME
       unicode - Implementation of Unicode normalization

SYNOPSIS
       package require Tcl  8.3

       package require unicode  1.0

       ::unicode::fromstring string

       ::unicode::tostring uclist

       ::unicode::normalize form uclist

       ::unicode::normalizeS form string

DESCRIPTION
       This is an implementation in Tcl of the Unicode normalization forms.

COMMANDS
       ::unicode::fromstring string
              Converts string to list of integer Unicode character codes which is used in unicode for inter-nal internal
              nal string representation.

       ::unicode::tostring uclist
              Converts list of integers uclist back to Tcl string.

       ::unicode::normalize form uclist
              Normalizes Unicode characters list ulist according to form and returns  the  normalized  list.
              Form  form takes one of the following values: D (canonical decomposition), C (canonical decom-position, decomposition,
              position, followed by canonical composition), KD (compatibility decomposition), or KC (compat-ibility (compatibility
              ibility decomposition, followed by canonical composition).

       ::unicode::normalizeS form string
              A   shortcut   to   ::unicode::tostring   [unicode::normalize   \$form  [::unicode::fromstring
              \$string]].  Normalizes Tcl string and returns normalized string.


EXAMPLES
       % ::unicode::fromstring "\u0410\u0411\u0412\u0413"
       1040 1041 1042 1043
       % ::unicode::tostring {49 50 51 52 53}
       12345
       %


       % ::unicode::normalize D {7692 775}
       68 803 775
       % ::unicode::normalizeS KD "\u1d2c"
