Meziantou.Framework.Unicode

Meziantou.Framework.Unicode

This package provides Unicode helpers for normalizing confusable characters using the Unicode confusables table.

using Meziantou.Framework;

var input = "раураl"; // Uses Cyrillic letters that look like Latin
var normalized = Unicode.ReplaceConfusablesCharacters(input);

Console.WriteLine(normalized); // "paypal"

This package also exposes Unicode character metadata from the Unicode data table:

var info = Unicode.GetCharacterInfo(new Rune('A'));
if (info is not null)
{
	Console.WriteLine(info.Value.Name); // "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A"
	Console.WriteLine(info.Value.Category); // UppercaseLetter
	Console.WriteLine(info.Value.BidiCategory); // LeftToRight
	Console.WriteLine(info.Value.Block); // BasicLatin
}
