Bug#111977: ITP: unac -- C library and command that removes accents from a string.



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

unac is a C library and command that removes accents from a string.
For instance the string été will become ete.  It provides a command
line interface that removes accents from a input flow or a string
given in argument (unaccent command). In the library function and the
command, the charset of the input is specified as an argument. The
input is converted to UTF-16 using iconv(3), accents are stripped and
the result is converted back to the original charset. The iconv --list
command on GNU/Linux will show all charset supported.

It can be downloaded from http://www.senga.org/unac/
