Free unicode character software for linux

Unicode Utilities project are a set of programs for manipulating and analyzing Unicode text. uniname defaults to printing the character offset of each character, its byte offset, its hex code value, its encoding, the glyph itself, and its name. Command line options allow undesired information to be suppressed and the Unicode range to be added.
unidesc reports the character ranges to which different portions of the text belong. unihist generates a histogram of the characters in its input. ExplicateUTF8 is intended for debugging or for learning about Unicode. It determines and explains the validity of a sequence of bytes as a UTF-8 encoding. unirev reverses UTF-8 strings.
Enhancements:
- Adds to unidesc the option -r which causes it to list the ranges detected after reading all input rather than listing them as they are encountered, and adds to uniname the option -B which causes it to ignore characters within the Basic Multilingual Plane.

CoC ChaGen is a character generator for Chaousium Incs rpg Call of Cthulhu.CoC CharGen is released under the GNU GPL. It is developed in 100% pure Java, and should hence be usable on any platform with Java support.

A main goal for the comming 2.0 release will be an implementation of the Byakhee save file format, to let users of CoC CharGen and Byakhee to exchange character files.

SWF::Builder::Character::Sound is a SWF Sound character.

SYNOPSIS

my $sound = $mc->new_sound( ring.mp3 );
$sound->play;

This module creates SWF sound characters from MP3 or raw Microsoft WAV files.

$sound = $mc->new_sound( $filename )

loads a sound file and returns a new sound character. It supports only MP3 now.

$sound->play( [ %options ] )

plays the sound.

Options:

MovieClip => $mc, Frame => $frame

MovieClip(MC) is a parent movie clip on which the sound is played. If MC is not set, the sound is played on the movie clip in which it is defined. Frame is the frame number on which the sound is played.

Multiple => 0/1

avoids/allows multiple playing. If 0, dont start the sound if already playing.

Loop => $count

sets the loop count.

In => $in_msec, Out => $out_msec

In sets the beginning point of the sound and Out sets the last in milliseconds.

Envelope => [ $msec1, $volumelevel1, $msec2, $volumelevel2, ... ]

sets the sound envelope. Volume level is set to $volumelevel1 at $msec1, and $volumelevel2 at $msec2, ... Volume level can take a number from 0 to 32768, or a reference to the array of volume levels of left and right channels.

$sound->stop( [ MovieClip => $mc, Frame => $frame ] )

stops playing the sound. It can take MovieClip and Frame options as same as the play method.

$sound->start_streaming( [ MovieClip => $mc, Frame => $frame ] )

starts the streaming sound, which synchronizes with the movie timeline. It can take MovieClip and Frame options as same as the play method.

$sound->Latency( $msec )

sets the sound latency in milliseconds.

MP3Unicode is a command line utility to convert ID3 tags in mp3 files between different encodings.
For example, mp3unicode --source-encoding cp1251 --id3v1-encoding none --id3v2-encoding unicode file.mp3 will read id3v2 tag (or id3v1 tag if there is no id3v2) from the file, convert the text fields in the tag from cp1251 to Unicode and will write id3v2 tag back, stripping away id3v1 tag.

< b >Usage:< /b >
mp3unicode [options] [filename]
< b >Options:< /b >
-s, --source-encoding < encoding >
Read current mp3 tags assuming they are encoded with < encoding >. < encoding > is either "unicode" or any valid 8bit encoding, for example "cp1251".
-1, --id3v1-encoding < encoding >
Write id3v1 tag in < encoding >, if < encoding > is "none", then strip id3v1 tag away. < encoding > may be any valid 8bit encoding, note however that it is not possible to write id3v1 in Unicode.
-2, --id3v2-encoding < encoding >
Write id3v2 tag in < encoding >, if < encoding > is "none", then strip id3v2 tag away. < encoding > may be either "unicode" or any valid 8bit encoding.
-p, --preserve-unicode
If source encoding is specified to be some specific encoding and not Unicode, but the actual encoding seems to be Unicode, then assume it is Unicode. E.g., if you want to process a lot of files, some of which are in Unicode (or have Unicode characters somewhere), but some are in cp1251, just issue -s cp1251 -p along with other options. This should work as you would like it to work.
-v, --version
Prints version number, compilation date and time.

SWF::Builder::Character::EditText is a SWF dynamic editable text object.

SYNOPSIS

my $text = $mc->new_dynamic_text( $font )
->size(10)
->color(000000)
->text(This is a text.);

my $text_i = $text->place;

my $field = $mc->new_input_field;
$field->place;

^This module creates dynamic editable text objects, which can be changed at playing time.

Basic dynamic editable text object

$etext = $mc->new_edit_text( [$font, $text] )

returns a new basic dynamic editable text object. It has interfaces to raw DefineEditText tag. $font is an SWF::Builder::Font object.

$etext->font( $font )

applies the font to the text. $font is an SWF::Builder::Font object. Unlike static text, the font is applied to the whole text. If the text will be changed in the playing time, you should add glyph data of all characters which will be used to the font by $font->add_glyph or turn off the embed flag of the font.

$etext->size( $size )

sets a font size to $size in pixel. Unlike static text, the font size of the whole text is changed.

$etext->color( $color )

sets color of the text. The color can take a six or eight-figure hexadecimal string, an array reference of R, G, B, and optional alpha value, an array reference of named parameters such as [Red => 255], and SWF::Element::RGB/RGBA object. Unlike static text, the color is applied to the whole text.

$etext->text( $string )

writes the $string.

$etext->leading( $leading )

sets the vertical distance between the lines in pixel.

$etext->box_size( $width, $height )

sets the bounding box of the text and stops auto-sizing the box. When either $width or $height is undef, it is unchanged. Fixing bounding box may cause unexpected text clipping. You should set DefineEditText flag Multiline and/or WordWrap. See SWF::Element.

$etext->draw_border

draws the border.

$etext->align( left / right / center / justify )

sets the text alignment.

$etext->methos for SWF::Element::Tag::DefineEditText

You can control details of the texts to call methods for DefineEditText tag. See SWF::Element.

Preset dynamic text object

The following objects are inheritants of the basic dynamic editable text. These are preset some proper flags of DefineEditText tag.

$dtext = $mc->new_dynamic_text( [$font, $text] )

returns a new dynamic text. It is read-only, multiline text enabled, and auto-sized its bounding box.

$htmltext = $mc->new_html_text( [$html] )

returns a new HTML text. It is read-only, multiline text enabled, and auto-sized its bounding box. The text is treated as a subset of HTML. Supported tags are < a >, < b >, < br >, < font >, < i >, < img >, < li >, < p >, < span >, < u >, and two special tags, < tab > and < textformat >. See Macromedia Flash File Format Specification and ActionScript Reference Guide for further information.

$htmltext->use_font( $font, ... )

tells $htmltext what fonts are used in the HTML. In general, upright, italic, bold, and bold italic font are in the different TrueType font files. You should prepare 2-4 fonts if you use < b > and < i > tags, like this:

my $fp = $ENV{SYSTEMROOT}./fonts; # for Windows.
my $font = $m->new_font("$fp/arial.ttf");
$font->add_glyph(a, z);
my $fonti = $m->new_font("$fp/ariali.ttf");
$fonti->add_glyph(a, z);
my $ht = $m->new_html_text;
$ht->text(test < i >string< /i >< /font >);
$ht->use_font($font, $fonti);

$mc->new_text_area( $width, $height )

returns a new editable text area. It takes area width and height in pixel.

$mc->new_input_field( [$length] )

returns a new one-line input field. $length is a max length of input string.

$mc->new_password_field( [$length] )

returns a new one-line password field. $length is a max length of input string.

Unicode Error Detector is a product for Plone used to pinpoint errors in your application leading to UnicodeDecodeErrors.

Do not use this product unless you are actively debugging a Unicode Error. Never use this product in production sites.

UnicodeDecodeErrors typically occur when you try to add a Unicode string to a non-ascii string. This product patches StringIO used by page templates to check if the appended string is a Unicode string, and if it is, it replaces the string with an error marker.

As there is some overhead associated with inspecting the strings instead of just appending to the output, this product is meant for debugging purposes only.

Usage

Put the product in your Products directory and restart Zope. Load the template causing the UnicodeDecodeError, and this tool will indicate the location by printing THIS IS WHERE THE ERROR IS in the rendered template.

You can then inspect the template and/or code more closely to figure out where the decode error happens.
