Uuseg — Unicode text segmentation for OCaml

v16.0.0

Uuseg is an OCaml library for segmenting Unicode text. It implements the locale independent Unicode text segmentation algorithms to detect grapheme cluster, word and sentence boundaries and the Unicode line breaking algorithm to detect line break opportunities.

The library is independent from any IO mechanism or Unicode text data structure and it can process text without a complete in-memory representation.

Uuseg is distributed under the ISC license. It depends on Uucp.
