< ToxicFrog>
Hmm. I may end up having to write or find a simple utf8 library for lua for this project.
20:15
< Vornucopia>
So I'm looking for a website to use as an example of something. I have tabular data, but I want to expand a row of that data into a thing that's more detailed, by adding a box underneath and pushing the proceeding rows down.
20:15
< Vornucopia>
But I can't think of any place that does this, so I can'tsee the markup they use for it.
20:15
< ToxicFrog>
Because utf8 is full of handy glyphs for things like box drawing, but it helps to be able to get accurate strlen.
20:16
< ToxicFrog>
I've seen loads but none of them come to mind offhand.
20:17
<&jeroud>
ToxicFrog: Does such a thing as a "simple utf8 library" exist?
20:17
< ToxicFrog>
jeroud: well, api-simple, not necessarily internals-simple
20:17
< ToxicFrog>
Since all I actually need is:
20:17
< ToxicFrog>
- how long, in characters, is this UTF-8 string
20:17
<&jeroud>
Or do you mean the encoding only rather than unicode madness?
20:18
< ToxicFrog>
And I would also like as a bonus but not require:
20:18
< ToxicFrog>
- given a UTF-8 string, return an ASCII string with the same character count but with UTF-8 characters replaced according to a translation table I provide
20:18
< ToxicFrog>
Basically I want utf8-aware versions of string.len and string.gsub.
20:19
< ToxicFrog>
jeroud: I'm not sure where you'r drawing the distinction, but what I need is a string library that is aware of the UTF-8 encoding rather than assuming that one byte == one character, not one that understands e.g. how to do case comparison in arbitrary locales in unicode.
20:20
< ToxicFrog>
I realize that "display length" gets hairy when discussing combining characters, but for the purposes of this discussion we can assume that those will never be used.
20:24
<&McMartin>
And even then, combining characters IIRC either are or are not combining, which means that one could in principle solve it with a single arithmetic function/giant lookup table.
20:25
<&jeroud>
Ah. That's almost encoding-only.
20:25 Vorntastic [Vorn@Nightstar-k70f1n.ct.comcast.net] has joined #code
20:26
<&jeroud>
The standard solution is operating on sequences of characters and translating to and from bytes on the edges.
20:26
<&jeroud>
But that's not really a great solution for your particular problem.
20:27
< Vorntastic>
Reminder that unicodedata.txt exists and is official
