A tiny package that removes common unicode confusables/homoglyphs from strings.

  • Its core is written in Rust and utilizes a form of Binary Search to ensure speed!
  • By default, it's capable of filtering 215.356 (19.33%) different unicode codepoints like:
  • Unlike other packages, this package is unicode bidi-aware in a way that it also interprets right-to-left characters in the same way as it were to be rendered by an application.
  • Its behavior is also highly customizable to your liking!
  • And it's available in the following languages:
