takes Unicode data and tries to represent it in ASCII characters
(i.e., the universally displayable characters between 0x00 and 0x7F).
The representation is almost always an attempt at *transliteration*
-- i.e., conveying, in Roman letters, the pronunciation expressed by
the text in some other writing system. (See the example above)

Command line interface to devel/librcc library. It is a highly
configurable tool (supports almost all library functionality) which
allows to recode standard input on the per-line basis. Additionally,
there is a special mode providing a way to bring the names of all
files in the specified directory to appropriate form (to the specified
encoding, transliterate all names to english, translate all names
to english, etc.)

HTML5lib and pyPdf. It supports HTML 5 and CSS 2.1 (and some
of CSS 3). It is completely written in pure Python so it is
platform independent. The main benefit of this tool that a user
with Web skills like HTML and CSS is able to generate PDF
templates very quickly without learning new technologies. Easy
integration into Python frameworks like CherryPy, KID Templating,
TurboGears, Django, Zope, Plone, Google AppEngine (GAE) etc.

Instead of time and space consuming textual representation, igbinary
stores PHP data structures in a compact binary form. Savings are
significant when using memcached or similar memory based storages for
serialized data.
