Re: New tool unidump
apropos unidump: It would be nice to add the option of printing not only numbers, but also character names and other info from the NamesList.txt file. I am using a homemade program at my computer: $ typecode fc25 66 63 32 35 $ typecode -l fc25 0066LATIN SMALL LETTER F 0063LATIN SMALL LETTER C 0032DIGIT TWO 0035DIGIT FIVE $ typecode -f fc25 0066LATIN SMALL LETTER F 0063LATIN SMALL LETTER C 0032DIGIT TWO ~ 0032 FE0E text style ~ 0032 FE0F emoji style 0035DIGIT FIVE ~ 0035 FE0E text style ~ 0035 FE0F emoji style

I maintain a list of various Unicode tools and resources at unicode.yea.rs and always welcome new additions! On Sat, Mar 18, 2017 at 1:42 AM, Janusz S.

Quote/Cytat - Manuel Strehl (Fri 17 Mar 2017 09:44:15 PM CET): Hi, for my work on codepoints.net and Emojipedia I found myself repeatedly in a place, where I needed some tool like hexdump to inspect the content of a string. However, instead of raw bytes I am more interested in the code points that the string is composed of. So I wrote this tool. Is somebody maintaining a list of such utilities? There is a page http://www.unicode.org/resources/online-tools.html but I remember that earlier a page on the site used to be links to the programs mentioned in 2012 "Tool to convert characters to character names", in particular to Bill Poser's uniutils (http://billposer.org/Software/unidesc.html) and the orphaned unihist by a student of mine (https://bitbucket.org/jsbien/unihistext).

Re: New tool unidump
https://r12a.github.io/uniview/ https://r12a.github.io/apps/conversion/ are excellent tools for this, as well, if you're in a situation where you can copy into a web form. This looks useful for commandline stuff, though, thanks! -Manish On Fri, Mar 17, 2017 at 1:44 PM, Manuel Strehl wrote: > Hi, > > for my work on codepoints.net and Emojipedia I found myself repeatedly > in a place, where I needed some tool like hexdump to inspect the content > of a string.
