ftfy v5.2 Release Notes

Release Date: 2017-11-27 // over 6 years ago
    • The command-line tool will not accept the same filename as its input and output. (Previously, this would write a zero-length file.)

    • The uncurl_quotes fixer, which replaces curly quotes with straight quotes, now also replaces MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE.

    • Codepoints that contain two Latin characters crammed together for legacy encoding reasons are replaced by those two separate characters, even in NFC mode. We formerly did this just with ligatures such as and IJ, but now this includes the Afrikaans digraph ʼn and Serbian/Croatian digraphs such as dž.
