Reading python doc I understand its purpose is to make sure characters which look identical actually are identical. But why are there 4 ways of normalization? When should I use each one?

I'm trying to write a "console" in my game, which would accept any key as input and then match the entered string against a list of accepted commands. However, I'm not entirely sure how Gamemaker handle input on keyboards that are not American QWERTY-style layouts. I know that there are many countries which naturally type letters that have accents or umlauts, etc. and usually there exists some library in a programming language that allows you to normalize those into a standard representation, such as a with accent becoming an a. I'm assuming that if any key is allowed, Gamemaker will put that value into keyboard_lastchar instead of an ASCII a? And if it does, I don't see any documentation or functions that would allow me to turn an accented a string into an ASCII a string, so I'm not sure how I would properly match against a theoretical command "a" for all potential keyboard layout.

Can someone give me a basic rundown of how I would go about accepting arbitrary key input from any keyboard layout (e.g.: Swedish or Italian) and then match that input against my own ASCII string commands? I'm using GameMaker: Studio 2.

It was in my emoji list but like it doesnt show up as a normal emoji for me

Hi people!

I am having an error when rendering, Warning: Invalid geometric normal (0 0 0) for "Non-converted Unicode render instance name", after this the program crash.Searching on the internet (Chaos forum) I found that the solution can recreate the proxies, but I don't have any active proxies other than forest pack, and when isolating it renders perfectly

Does anyone have any idea what may be causing this error or where I can start investigating in my model?

Edit: Already solved, was stair's normals

Alright guys so here's my situation.

I have an integer array of UCs which works for the keycodes (I guess - have yet to flash it) but does not work for sending keycodes within (tap dance) functions.

UNICODE_ENABLE = yes

I don't want to step on anybody's toes here, but the amount of non-dad jokes here in this subreddit really annoys me. First of all, dad jokes CAN be NSFW, it clearly says so in the sub rules. Secondly, it doesn't automatically make it a dad joke if it's from a conversation between you and your child. Most importantly, the jokes that your CHILDREN tell YOU are not dad jokes. The point of a dad joke is that it's so cheesy only a dad who's trying to be funny would make such a joke. That's it. They are stupid plays on words, lame puns and so on. There has to be a clever pun or wordplay for it to be considered a dad joke.

Again, to all the fellow dads, I apologise if I'm sounding too harsh. But I just needed to get it off my chest.

Good morning redditing gophers (or evening, or ....). I'm new to Go but I've implemented a Unicode utilities module that appears to outperform packages like "unicode" and x/text "norm", especially my normalization package. And I have ideas that I think will improve its performance further.

The problem is that pkg.go.dev appears to have buried my modules to oblivion and I don't know why. I know they changed the search the other day, but, still, searching "unicode normalization" would bring up my unorm package waaaaaaaaay down near the bottom of the secondary list, but now I cannot find any search terms that bring it up at all. I don't expect it to appear in the first results, but I would hope that it would show up somewhere while scrolling through the secondary results. I cannot find any search terms that find it anywhere in the list.

Is there something I am doing that makes pkg.go.dev hate it so much?

For example, my normalization package is here: https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/orkvozku/go/uni@v0.0.7/unorm

At first I thought that, at least for "unicode", it may be due to putting a circle-R trademark on it. I am following the instructions at unicode.org to property trademark attribute it, even though nobody else seems to do it. I tried putting a zero-width space to help pkg.go.dev find the key word, but not luck. I then changed it to a normal space and still no luck.

p.s. I'm new to Go so if you snoop at my code, please be nice about the various stupid things you will find. Thanks. :)

It's been 5 years since I play Minecraft, and even after that much time unicode fonts are not put in order. I already made a fix for the Russian language, but every time I update the fix annoying. I can provide a fix with a full description of the changes, I hope my request will be ignored and will finally fix unicode fonts. For those who do not understand: all unicode fonts in Minecraft have a thin base, unlike English, etc. languages.

Both of these appear to be in active development, although rust_icu says that it means largely to be a stopgap until there's full native support for ICU which icu appears to be (it's developed under the aegis of unicode.org). Has anybody dug deep into this and determined what's missing from icu? Right now, my primary needs are for normalization and Unicode character categories, although I will eventually need case folding and collation.

I am trying to use PowerShell to normalize a CSV file in UTF8 format. The CSV has some miscoded info that I would like to validate and fix as part of the normalization.

Example of CSV data

------------------------------------------------

date,name

10/2/2021, 株式会社スタジオジブリ

11/4/2012,John Smith

3/14/1995, 株式会社スタジオジブリ

------------------------------------------------------

In the above example, I know that the name in the last row has the wrong encoding. The correct encoding would be the same as the first row, i.e. 株式会社スタジオジブリ

Does anyone have a clue how to accomplish this in PowerShell? or how to use PowerShell to run an external Unicode 'scrubber?

Thanks!

Do your worst!

I'm surprised it hasn't decade.

For context I'm a Refuse Driver (Garbage man) & today I was on food waste. After I'd tipped I was checking the wagon for any defects when I spotted a lone pea balanced on the lifts.

I said "hey look, an escaPEA"

No one near me but it didn't half make me laugh for a good hour or so!

Edit: I can't believe how much this has blown up. Thank you everyone I've had a blast reading through the replies 😂

It really does, I swear!

Background

I was a decently heavy amateur user of XeLaTeX between 2009–2014 (more or less), first typesetting assignments for my math and physics classes and later typesetting fiction with a length between novelette and short story. XeLaTeX was my tool of choice at the time because it allowed me to use MacOS system fonts in my documents and directly input Unicode without \inputspec[utf-8]{fontenc} (typed that from memory, so it may be subtly wrong).

However, I have not been that active in the TeX world in the following seven years or so.

I may have the itch (if not the time) to get back into typesetting fiction again. However, I now know about LuaTeX and ConTeXt. More accurately, LuaTeX hit 1.0 during my absence and ConTeXt LMTX became the new feature development branch of ConTeXt (and is mostly stable as of 2021).

General Questions as we enter 2022

1. How do pdfTeX, XeTeX, and LuaTeX compare as engines? From my understanding, LuaTeX is the clear winner unless you have specific Unicode issues that require XeTeX. EDIT: LuaTeX being the obvious winner is the consensus answer
2. How do ConTeXt MKIV, OpTex, LaTeX, and ConTeXt LMTX compare as formats? It seems that ConTeXt v LaTeX is mostly dependent on personal preference and occasionally by the needs of the specific project for projects with unique requirements.
3. (I assume the answer is "yes" but I felt it needed to be asked anyway) Do the engines all support both ARM and Intel under both macOS and Linux? EDIT: Yes.
4. Which ones have sensible ways to include LilyPond input? Answer: Both ConTeXt and normal LaTeX, through lilpond-book.

Specific Questions for my use cases

1. How would ConTeXt compare with LaTeX for typesetting medium-length fiction (the aforementioned short stories & novellas)?
2. If I were to make one of those stories look like a tribute to Chapters IX or XX of House of Leaves, how do the two formats compare? Namely, how does the minipage environment or its ConTeXt equivalent hold up to flipping, rotation, and other copious abuse?
3. (For the stories that have straightforward formatting) Would there be any real difference between the two in terms of outputting BBCode for secondary publication? pandoc -t HTML input.tex | 2bbcode_hubzilla HTML > output.bb is my curre
