I'm trying to convert UTF-8 to ASCII in Perl. Is there an easy way to do this?
I tried Unicode::UTF8simple, but ended up w/ many ctrl-a's, which can't be right. I'm going for an extremely complete transliteration, so I want ETH (for example) to be converted to both "d" and "dh". In other words, my input is ONE string, but my return value is a LIST of strings. My goal: create an ASCII version of geonames' alternateNames table. -- We're just a Bunch Of Regular Guys, a collective group that's trying to understand and assimilate technology.
