Unicoder is a command-line tool transforms text documents, replacing simple
patterns with unicode equivalents. The patterns can be easily configured by
the user.
This package is especially meant to open the vast and expressive array
of unicode identifiers to programmers and language designers, but there's
nothing wrong with a technically savvy user putting unicoder to work
on documents for human consumption.
Any system of special characters can be made easy to type on any keyboard
and in any context as long as unicode supports it.
Cabal wants to fight me over typesetting some examples, so check out
the real docs
for a decent look at the features.
In the interests of giving readers some idea whats going on,
with the default settings,
\E.x. \A.y. x \-> y
\l.x,y. x \of x \of y
becomes
∃x ∀y x → y
λx,y. x ∘ x ∘ y
except that the newline isn't removed (thanks, cabal!). Also, there are a couple
important features that I can't seem to get cabal to even parse (thanks again!).
