# uniscribe | Describe the Unicode [![[version]](https://badge.fury.io/rb/uniscribe.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/rb/uniscribe)  [![[ci]](https://github.com/janlelis/uniscribe/workflows/Test/badge.svg)](https://github.com/janlelis/uniscribe/actions?query=workflow%3ATest)

Describes Unicode characters with their name and shows compositions. **UNICODE 17.0**\*

- Helps you understand how glyphs and codepoints are structured within the data
- Gives you the names of glyphs and codepoints, which can be used for further research
- Highlights invalid/special/blank codepoints

Uses a similar color coding like its lower-level companion tool [unibits](https://github.com/janlelis/unibits).

## Setup

Make sure you have Ruby installed and installing gems works properly. Then do:

```
$ gem install uniscribe
```

## Usage

Pass the string to debug to uniscribe:

### From CLI

```
$ uniscribe "test strı̈ng"
```

### From Ruby

```ruby
require "uniscribe/kernel_method"
uniscribe "test strı̈ng"
```

### Output

```

0074 ├─ t		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER T
0065 ├─ e		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER E
0073 ├─ s		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER S
0074 ├─ t		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER T
0020 ├─ ] [		├─ SPACE
0073 ├─ s		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER S
0074 ├─ t		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER T
0072 ├─ r		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER R
---- ├┬ ı̈		├┬ Composition
0131 │├─ ı		│├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS I
0308 │└─ ◌̈		│└─ COMBINING DIAERESIS
006E ├─ n		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER N
0067 ├─ g		├─ LATIN SMALL LETTER G

```

## Examples

### Tamil

`>> uniscribe "நகரத்தில்"`

### Thai

`>> uniscribe "ม้าลายหกตัว"`

![Screenshot Thai](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/janlelis/uniscribe/main/screenshots/thai.png)

### Ideographic Variations

`>> uniscribe "辻󠄀㚑󠄁"`

![Screenshot Ideographic Variations](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/janlelis/uniscribe/main/screenshots/ideographic_variations.png)

(the variation is not visible in the screenshot, because my system does not render it correctly)

### Emoji Sequences

`>> uniscribe "3️⃣🤸‍♀"`

![Screenshot Emoji](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/janlelis/uniscribe/main/screenshots/emoji.png)

### Lots of Combining Marks

`>> uniscribe "̶̧̨̱̹̭̯ͧ̾ͬC̷̙̲̝͖ͭ̏ͥͮ͟Oͮ͏̮̪̝͍"`

![Screenshot Marks](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/janlelis/uniscribe/main/screenshots/marks.png)

### Random Sequences of some Special Unicode Codepoints

`>> uniscribe "\0A\u{E01D7}\x7F\r\n\u{D0000}\u{81}\u{FFF9}B\u{FFFB}🏴\u{E0061}\u{E007F}\u{10FFFF}"`

![Screenshot Strange](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/janlelis/uniscribe/main/screenshots/strange.png)

### Some Blanks

`>> uniscribe "ᅠ ⁬𝅸"`

![Screenshot Blanks](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/janlelis/uniscribe/main/screenshots/blanks.png)

## \*Notes

Although the gem is generally up to date with Unicode 16.0, the proper detection of compositions / graphemes / combined characters [depends on your Ruby version](https://idiosyncratic-ruby.com/73-unicode-version-mapping.html):

You can run `uniscribe -v` to check for the Unicode level of your uniscribe version.
