From ChangeLog: 2011-09-23 unidecode 0.04.9 * Fixed Python 2.5 installation issue. 2011-09-22 unidecode 0.04.8 * License change to GPL to fit better with other Python modules and to remove the issue of depending on Perl for licensing terms. * Always return a string object on Python 2.x. Before this patch, unidecode() returned a unicode object on Python 2.x if the input was a unicode object that contained ASCII characters. Behaviour on Python 3.x remains unchanged.

What Unidecode provides is a function, 'unidecode(...)' that
|
|
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)
