The document discusses the unihandecode library, which facilitates Unicode transliteration for multiple languages, particularly focusing on East and South Asian languages. It highlights the library's capabilities, including its semi-automatic generation of transliteration tables and support for various character sets, along with its integration into e-book management software. Future plans include expanding its functionality for additional languages and improving its usability for content generation.

23. Unihandecode Locale aware transliterate library for python

24. Semi-automatic generation of transliteration table From UNICODE.org standards text file. Support CJKV charsets bring KAKASI feature to unidecode Several test case for east and south asian languages.

25. Unicode.org unihan data table

26. KAKASI C language binding, no release after 2004

27. Project page at LaunchPad.net

28. Implementation /data/ 日本語 韓国語 ベトナム語 デフォルト 中国語 table pykakasi 部分 漢字->かな 辞書アクセス かな->ローマ kakasi class 辞書 異体字 漢字よみ かなローマ Unicode 定義

29. How to use it from unihandecode import Unidecoder d = Unidecoder() # default latin+chinese d.decode(u"\u5317\u4EB0") # 北京 'Bei Jing' d = Unidecoder(lang='ja') # prefer japanese d.decode(u"\u5317\u4EB0") 'Pe King'

30. Good roman file name 日経新聞 “ Nikkeishinbun”

36. Better Greek, Indic characters

37. More test case difficult for non-speaker to prepare
