How to Use It

Echo Command

The unic-echo command generates Unicode strings, similar to the common echo command.

# Normally, the output ends with a newline
$ unic-echo Hello سلام
Hello سلام

# Get the codepoints or UTF-8/UTF-16, instead of plain text
$ unic-echo Hello سلام -o codepoints
U+0048 U+0065 U+006C U+006C U+006F U+0020 U+0633 U+0644 U+0627 U+0645

# Or see how to escape as a Rust string literal
$ unic-echo Hello سلام -o rust-escape
"Hello \u{633}\u{644}\u{627}\u{645}"

# Also the input can be in codepoints, or UTF-8/UTF-16 hex
$ unic-echo -i codepoints U+0 U+20 U+41 U+A0 -o rust-escape
"\u{0} A\u{a0}"
