;;; Commentary:

;; A simple wrapper around the command line "idn" utility in GNU
;; Libidn to make IDNA ToASCII and ToUnicode operations available in
;; Emacs.

;; Example:
;;
;; (idna-to-ascii "räksmörgås.gnu.org")
;; => "xn--rksmrgs-5wao1o.gnu.org"
;;
;; (idna-to-ascii "www.gnu.org")
;; => "www.gnu.org"
;;
;; (idna-to-unicode "xn--rksmrgs-5wao1o.gnu.org")
;; => "räksmörgås.gnu.org"
;;
;; (idna-to-unicode "www.gnu.org")
;; => "www.gnu.org"

;; Todo: Support AllowUnassigned and UseSTD3ASCIIRules somehow?

;; This package is useless unless your emacs has at least partial
;; support for the UTF-8 coding system.

;; Report bugs to bug-libidn@gnu.org.
