Re: [fltk/fltk] Docs for fl_utf8*() functions could use some code examples (#125) "Lars H. Rohwedder" Nov 26, 2020  
 

Oh, and as a code example for walking a utf8 string a character at a time, something like this for the fl_utf8len1() function:

First I'd like to ask you, what is the usecase for "walking through a string character-by-character"?

I ask because in Unicode there are different contexts where the meaning of a "character" is completely different:

  • an octet
  • a Unicode codepoint
  • a grapheme
  • a glyphe
  • something that is displayed (or considered by the user) "as one undividable symbol"
