# Helpers for Unicode.
#
# Mu has no characters, only code points and graphemes.
# Code points are the indivisible atoms of text streams.
#   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_point
# Graphemes are the smallest self-contained unit of text.
# Graphemes may consist of multiple code points.
#
# Mu graphemes are always represented in utf-8, and they are required to fit
# in 4 bytes.
#
# Mu doesn't currently support combining code points, or graphemes made of
# multiple code points. One day we will.
# We also don't currently support code points that translate into multiple
# or wide graphemes. (In particular, Tab will never be supported.)

# transliterated from tb_utf8_unicode_to_char in https://github.com/nsf/termbox
# https://wiki.tcl-lang.org/page/UTF%2D8+bit+by+bit explains the algorithm
#
# The day we want to support combining characters, this function will need to
# take multiple code points. Or something.
