;;; Commentary:

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

;; Example:
;;
;; (punycode-encode "räksmörgås")
;; => "rksmrgs-5wao1o"
;;
;; (punycode-encode "foo")
;; => "foo-"
;;
;; (punycode-decode "rksmrgs-5wao1o")
;; => "räksmörgås"
;;
;; (punycode-decode "foo-")
;; => "foo"

;; 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.
