NAME

gencfu - Generates Unicode Confusable data files  

SYNOPSIS

gencfu [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir directory ] -r, --rules rule-file -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file -o, --out output-file  

DESCRIPTION

gencfu reads confusable character definitions in the input file, which are plain text files containing confusable character definitions in the input format defined by Unicode UAX39 for the files confusables.txt and confusablesWholeScript.txt. This source (.txt) format is also accepted by ICU spoof detectors. The files must be encoded in utf-8 format, with or without a BOM. Normally the output data file has the .cfu extension.  

OPTIONS

-h, -?, --help

Print help about usage and exit.

-V, --version

Print the version of gencfu and exit.

-c, --copyright

Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file.

-v, --verbose

Display extra informative messages during execution.

-d, --destdir destination

Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination.

-i, --icudatadir directory

Look for any necessary ICU data files in directory. For example, the file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not built as a shared library. The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. Most configurations of ICU do not require this argument.

-r, --rules rule-file

The source file to read.

-w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file

The whole script source file to read.

-o, --out output-file
