Package: utf8gen (1.1-4)

convert ASCII hexadecimal Unicode code points to UTF-8

The utf8gen package contains one program, utf8gen, which reads hexadecimal numbers interpreted as Unicode code points and produces formatted output. The numbers are provided one per line. Each number is optionally followed by a space plus miscellaneous text.

The output is specified by providing printf(3)-style format strings on the command line. This provides the flexibility to print UTF-8 byte values in any desired base, echo the input value formatted as a comment for any desired programming language, or even to provide HTML-like table entries. Optional miscellaneous text on each input line can be copied to the output.
