NAME

App::Uni - Command-line utility to grep UnicodeData.txt

VERSION

This document describes version v0.14.0 of App::Uni, released June 7, 2011.

SYNOPSIS

    $ uni smiling face
    263A ☺ WHITE SMILING FACE
    263B ☻ BLACK SMILING FACE

    $ uni ☺
    263A ☺ WHITE SMILING FACE

DESCRIPTION

This module installs a simple program, uni, that helps grepping through the Unicode database (bundled with this distribution).

The arguments to the uni program are joined with space and interpreted as a regular expression. Character codes or names matching the regex (case-insensitively) are then printed out.

If the argument is a single character, then the character itself is also printed out in addition to code and name matches.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

This is a re-implementation of a same-named program Larry copied to me, which accompanied me for years. However, that program was lost during a hard disk failure, so I coded it up from memory.

Thank-you, Larry, for everything. ♡
