Function Details

u(s, encoding=`'utf-8'`)

source code

Convert string-like objects to unicode. The general idea is that, as soon as data comes into your program, you call u() on it to make sure it is unicode.

Note: u() should be idempotent: i.e. u(u(x)) == u(x)

e(s)	source code

Encode unicode into a bytestring, for printing. The idea is that, just before you print anything, you call e() on the data to be printed.

Module g_ucode

u(s, encoding='utf-8')

e(s)

u(s, encoding=`'utf-8'`)
