Re: Unicode UTF-8 Compatible Version of Gutcheck

I'd like to give it a try.  Can you upload it somewhere?  Or you can
send me a copy as a zipped attachment.  
 
And if you can mention the etext numbers of several of the files you
tested it against, I can cross-check them with Gutcheck and Bookloupe
(http://www.juiblex.co.uk/pgdp/bookloupe/index.html).

Subject: [gutvol-d] Unicode UTF-8 Compatible Version of Gutcheck



I've created a Unicode UTF-8 Compatible Version of Gutcheck, calling it
gutcheck_u -- if anyone wants to try it.

 

This was primarily an exercise in finding and changing 8-bit char coding
dependencies to 16-bit widechar coding dependencies, but it did require
some additional coding.

 

Currently it is a somewhat Windows-dependent implementation, so if you
want to run it on another OS it would take a little bit of work.

 

I find it more pleasant to use if one's development file format of
choice is UTF-8, and/or if one are doing such things as left-handed /
right-handed quotes.

 

Testing it on PG released files I am in fact finding a fair amount of
left / right handedness errors that are not currently being discovered.

 

Let me know if you want to try it, same distribution terms as the
original.
