# unicode_names

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/huonw/unicode_names.png)](https://travis-ci.org/huonw/unicode_names) [![Coverage Status](https://coveralls.io/repos/huonw/unicode_names/badge.svg)](https://coveralls.io/r/huonw/unicode_names)

Time and memory efficiently mapping characters to and from their

Unicode 7.0 names, at runtime and compile-time.

```rust

extern crate unicode_names;

fn main() {

    println!("☃ is called {}", unicode_names::name('☃')); // SNOWMAN

    println!("{} is happy", unicode_names::character("white smiling face")); // ☺

    // (NB. case insensitivity)

}

```

The maps are compressed using similar tricks to Python's `unicodedata`

module, although those here are about 70KB (12%) smaller.
