-UCDN - Unicode Database and Normalization
-
-UCDN is a Unicode support library. Currently, it provides access
-to basic character properties contained in the Unicode Character
-Database and low-level normalization functions (pairwise canonical
-composition/decomposition and compatibility decomposition). More
-functionality might be provided in the future, such as additional
-properties, string normalization and encoding conversion.
-
-UCDN uses standard C89 with no particular dependencies or requirements
-except for stdint.h, and can be easily integrated into existing
-projects. However, it can also be used as a standalone library,
-and a CMake build script is provided for this. The first motivation
-behind UCDN development was to provide a standalone set of Unicode
-functions for the HarfBuzz OpenType shaping library. For this purpose,
-a HarfBuzz-specific wrapper is shipped along with it (hb-ucdn.h).
-
-UCDN is published under the ISC license, please see the license header
-in the C source code for more information. The makeunicodata.py script
-required for parsing Unicode database files is licensed under the
-PSF license, please see PYTHON-LICENSE for more information.
-
-UCDN was written by Grigori Goronzy <greg@kinoho.net>.
-
-How to Use
-
-Include ucdn.c, ucdn.h and unicodedata_db.h in your project. Now,
-just use the functions as documented in ucdn.h.
-
-In some cases, it might be necessary to regenerate the Unicode
-database file. The script makeunicodedata.py (Python 3.x required)
-fetches the appropriate files and dumps the compressed database into
-unicodedata_db.h.
