lssndrbarbieri@gmail.com Alessandro Barbieri co-maintainers welcome A collection of character string/text/natural language processing tools for pattern searching (e.g., with 'Java'-like regular expressions or the 'Unicode' collation algorithm), random string generation, case mapping, string transliteration, concatenation, sorting, padding, wrapping, Unicode normalisation, date-time formatting and parsing, and many more. They are fast, consistent, convenient, and - thanks to 'ICU' (International Components for Unicode) - portable across all locales and platforms. marek@gagolewski.com Marek Gagolewski https://github.com/gagolews/stringi/issues gentoo-guru-overlay
