gencfu
GENCFU(1) ICU 50.1.2 Manual GENCFU(1)
NAME
gencfu - Generates Unicode Confusable data files
SYNOPSIS
gencfu [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ] [ -c, --copyright ] [ -v, --verbose ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir direc-
tory ] -r, --rules rule-file -w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file -o, --out output-file
DESCRIPTION
gencfu reads confusable character definitions in the input file, which are plain text files containing confusable character definitions in
the input format defined by Unicode UAX39 for the files confusables.txt and confusablesWholeScript.txt. This source (.txt) format is also
accepted by ICU spoof detectors. The files must be encoded in utf-8 format, with or without a BOM. Normally the output data file has the
.cfu extension.
OPTIONS
-h, -?, --help
Print help about usage and exit.
-V, --version
Print the version of gencfu and exit.
-c, --copyright
Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file.
-v, --verbose
Display extra informative messages during execution.
-d, --destdir destination
Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination.
-i, --icudatadir directory
Look for any necessary ICU data files in directory. For example, the file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not built
as a shared library. The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable ICU_DATA. Most configurations of ICU
do not require this argument.
-r, --rules rule-file
The source file to read.
-w, --wsrules whole-script-rule-file
The whole script source file to read.
-o, --out output-file
The output data file to write.
