There are "Unidecode" packages for Perl[1], Python[2], and Emacs[3]
(derived from one another in that order). They each transliterate
Unicode text to ASCII, e.g.:
(unidecode "Déjà vu")
;=> "Deja vu"
(unidecode "北亰")
;=> "Bei Jing "
Does Emacs have equivalent functionality built-in?
[ The context for this is that I recently submitted a change to the
MELPA recipe, and Steve Purcell mentioned[4] that he would be
surprised if Emacs doesn't already have such functionality. ]
Thanks for any pointers
John
