+ longDescription = ''
+ This package provides conversion in both directions between UTF-8
+ Unicode and more than thirty 7-bit ASCII equivalents, including
+ RFC 2396 URI format and RFC 2045 Quoted Printable format, the
+ representations used in HTML, SGML, XML, OOXML, the Unicode
+ standard, Rich Text Format, POSIX portable charmaps, POSIX locale
+ specifications, and Apache log files, and the escapes used for
+ including Unicode in Ada, C, Common Lisp, Java, Pascal, Perl,
+ Postscript, Python, Scheme, and Tcl.
+
+ Such ASCII equivalents are useful when including Unicode text in
+ program source, when debugging, and when entering text into web
+ programs that can handle the Unicode character set but are not
+ 8-bit safe. For example, MovableType, the blog software, truncates
+ posts as soon as it encounters a byte with the high bit
+ set. However, if Unicode is entered in the form of HTML numeric
+ character entities, Movable Type will not garble the post.
+
+ It also provides ways of converting non-ASCII characters to
+ similar ASCII characters, e.g. by stripping diacritics.
