Package `slug` generate slug from Unicode string, URL-friendly slugify with

multiple languages support.

## Example

```go

package main

import (

	"fmt"

	"github.com/gosimple/slug"

)

func main() {

	text := slug.Make("Hellö Wörld хелло ворлд")

	fmt.Println(text) // Will print: "hello-world-khello-vorld"

	someText := slug.Make("影師")

	fmt.Println(someText) // Will print: "ying-shi"

	enText := slug.MakeLang("This & that", "en")

	fmt.Println(enText) // Will print: "this-and-that"

	deText := slug.MakeLang("Diese & Dass", "de")

	fmt.Println(deText) // Will print: "diese-und-dass"

	slug.Lowercase = false // Keep uppercase characters

	deUppercaseText := slug.MakeLang("Diese & Dass", "de")

	fmt.Println(deUppercaseText) // Will print: "Diese-und-Dass"

	slug.CustomSub = map[string]string{

		"water": "sand",

	}

	textSub := slug.Make("water is hot")

	fmt.Println(textSub) // Will print: "sand-is-hot"

}

```

## Design

This library will always returns clean output from any Unicode string

containing only the following ASCII characters:

* numbers: `0-9`

* small letters: `a-z`

* big letters: `A-Z` (only if you set `Lowercase` to `false`)

* minus sign: `-`

* underscore: `_`

Minus sign and underscore characters will never appear at the beginning or

the end of the returned string.

Thanks to context-insensitive transliteration of Unicode characters to ASCII

output returned string is safe for URL slugs and filenames.

## Requests or bugs?

If your language is missing you could add it in `languages_substitution.go`

file.

In case of missing proper Unicode characters transliteration to ASCII you could

add them to underlying library:
