  Description     : library for dealing with sequences of Unicode characters

 OCaml-Text is an OCaml library for dealing with "text", i.e. sequences
 of Unicode characters, in a convenient way. It supports:
  * easy encoding/decoding of text;
  * a lot of functions for manipulation of UTF-8 encoded strings;
  * locale-specific text functions (compare, upper, is_alpha, ...).
 .
 It is composed of only two modules:
  * "Encoding" for encoding/decoding text
  * "Text" for text manipulation
 .
 OCaml-Text is designed to be easy to use and interacts well with other
 projects.


This library is a new dependency of lwt and I intend to maintain it as
part of Debian OCaml Maintainers.
