Quick start =========== DiacriticsFu::escape("éphémère") => "ephemere" DiacriticsFu::escape("räksmörgås") => "raksmorgas" What? ===== A small library to remove accents from a string. Relies on ActiveSupport. Created because I needed a simple way to remove most diacritics from French sentences, while generating slugs (url) for a CMS (either Mephisto or ComatoseCMS). Nb: this approach is not the fastest way to achieve this. It's good enough for me though. Author ====== Thibaut Barrère (http://blog.logeek.fr) Testing ======= You can run the spec against the latest available ActiveSupport using "rake spec". To run the tests against all installed ActiveSupport versions, use "rake spec_multi" License ======= MIT
