NAME

6       gencfu - Generates Unicode Confusable data files
7

SYNOPSIS

9       gencfu  [  -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -v,
10       --verbose ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir  directory
11       ]  -r, --rules rule-file -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file -o, --out
12       output-file
13

DESCRIPTION

15       gencfu reads confusable character definitions in the input file,  which
16       are plain text files containing confusable character definitions in the
17       input format defined by Unicode UAX39 for the files confusables.txt and
18       confusablesWholeScript.txt.  This source (.txt) format is also accepted
19       by ICU spoof detectors.  The files must be  encoded  in  utf-8  format,
20       with  or without a BOM.  Normally the output data file has the .cfu ex‐
21       tension.

24       -h, -?, --help
25              Print help about usage and exit.
26
27       -V, --version
28              Print the version of gencfu and exit.
29
30       -c, --copyright
31              Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file.
32
33       -v, --verbose
34              Display extra informative messages during execution.
35
36       -d, --destdir destination
37              Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination.
38
39       -i, --icudatadir directory
40              Look for any necessary ICU data files in directory.   For  exam‐
41              ple,  the file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not
42              built as a shared library.  The default ICU  data  directory  is
43              specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA.  Most configura‐
44              tions of ICU do not require this argument.
45
46       -r, --rules rule-file
47              The source file to read.
48
49       -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file
50              The whole script source file to read.
51
52       -o, --out output-file
53              The output data file to write.
