This is useful if you ever receive text/enriched email.
To quote from the author, Brandon Long:
This program is based on the program in Appendix A of rfc1896.
It does as much as I can think of to convert text/enriched to
text/html (since there are so many viewers for text/html). It
is a hack. It is not perfect, and the html it generates is
far from perfect. I've tried to follow HTML v3.2, but its
still not great.
Usage:
Pass it the text/enriched body of a message on stdin, and it
will put the text/html version on stdout.
To make mutt display text/enriched, put this in your .mailcap file:
# enriched.sh converts text/enriched to text/html and then uses lynx to display
text/enriched; ${PREFIX}/bin/enriched2html | lynx -dump -stdin ; copiousoutput
Free Implementation of the Unicode Bidirectional Algorithm.
The library implements all of the algorithm as described in the "Unicode
Standard Annex #9, The Bidirectional Algorithm,
http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr9/". FriBidi is exhautively tested
against Bidi Reference Code, and due to our best knowledge, does not contain
any conformance bugs.
In the API, we were inspired by the document "Bi-Di languages support - BiDi
API proposal" by Franck Portaneri which he wrote as a proposal for adding BiDi
support to Mozilla.
Internally the library uses Unicode entirely. The character property function
was automatically created from the Unicode property list data file,
PropList.txt, available from the Unicode Online Data site. This means that
every Unicode character will be treated in strict accordance with the Unicode
specification. The same is true for the mirroring of characters, which also
works for all the characters listed as mirrorable in the Unicode specification.
changes since 2.20:
Release 2.21
Documentation tweaks.
Don't rely on SvEND(sv) == '\0' as discussed in the perl5-porters
mailing list thread that starts with
http://www.xray.mpe.mpg.de/mailing-lists/perl5-porters/2003-10/msg00258.html
Should now pass test suite even without XS support.
Perl v5.005 or better is now required.

- no internal code changes.
- much better documentation, now considered "useful".
- removed the procedural interface.
- fought the wish to perl-5.8'ify and thus simply the code :().
- stress-tested version 0.3 against 70000 data postings since sunday.
0.3 Sun Oct 13 15:12:11 CEST 2002
- updated to uulib 0.5.18. As expected, some but not all of my bugfixes
have went into uulib, sdo the number of differences decreased a bit
again.
- I found out that the library is being sold commercially by Frank
Pilhofer, disregarding the GPL and ignoring the rights of the people
who sent in patches :(
- vastly more useful documentation in the .pm file.
- much smaller distribution filesize ;)
These are experimental modules to handle various Unicode issues.
They were made before perl included native UTF8 support.
The current set of modules are:
Unicode::String - represent strings of Unicode chars
Unicode::CharName - look up character names
Unicode::Map8 - mapping tables towards 8-bit char sets
(the Unicode::Map8 module is distributed separately)
