I have finally revamped, manually rebased, and repackaged my Unicode
data patches which I'll send in separate mail.
However, as I don't have a command-line sendmail set up (and apparently
it's not as easy as it used to be),
I'll send zip archives which contain git-patch files.
There are two patches:
libc/string: wcwidth using generated width data, with data generated
from Unicode 10.0
libc/ctype: isw* and tow* functions using generated case conversion and
character class data, with Unicode 10.0 data
For both, generation script and a Makefile.widthdata / Makefile.chardata
is included. As these are to be used in the source directory,
not the binary target directory, in case of future Unicode update, they
are not related to the other Makefiles.
In ctype/, there is one new source (categories.c) which should be
compiled separately but although I tried to include it in Makefile.am,
I could not get the build process to compile it. So the current solution
is to include it from one of the other sources (the one that also
maintains the case conversion table).
