For when you ask yourself "how do I escape that"?

Prints escape sequences for unicode graphemes

It seems like every other day I'm looking up what the escape sequence for a unicode grapheme is in various web languages. And I'm also trying to learn Rust. So I wrote a tool in Rust.

Install & Use

$ cargo install how-do-i-escape $ how-do-i-escape § css = "\00A7" html = § js = "\u00A7"

What I'm thinking for 1.0

• [x] Check code coverage is working properly
• [x] Prefer HTML entities if one exists
• [x] Improve output readability (maybe with colour)
• [ ] Try and reduce the time it takes to run cargo install
• [x] Test against stable, beta and nightly Rust
• [x] Read spec to figure out how graphemes > FFFF are supposed to work
• [ ] Use HTML entities that are made of two code points
