09:58 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> I have a list of strings which contain letters that have diacritics, or chinese characters, things like that. ⏎ Is there anything I could use to convert them to latin-alphabet-only slugs, or safe filenames?

13:08 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> @zblesk:zble.sk for a `content-disposition` header?

13:09 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> be fairly easy to just replace those chars with some other char, but translation to their latin equivalent sounds quite challenging

13:09 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> no. I will be using it for various places, like unique URLs or image file names.

13:09 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> I could forgo the translation.

13:09 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> How would I do that replacement?

13:10 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> `fallback_filename = filename.gsub { |chr| chr.ascii? ? chr : '_' }` is how i handle it

13:10 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> but that just deletes anything that isn't ASCII, it looks like?

13:10 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> pretty much yea

13:10 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> I would like to at least preserve chars and strip them of diacritics.

13:12 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> I know that such a thing can normally be done with Unicode by converting the string into the decomposed form, stripping non-letter codepoints and then composing it again. ⏎ I have checked the String docs, and I currently don't see how I would do that in Crystal.

13:13 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> hmm

13:14 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> have an example in ruby or another lang?

13:15 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> I only did it in dotnet

13:15 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> would that help?

13:15 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> :shrug: maybe

13:17 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> string.Concat( ⏎ ⏎ ```code paste, see link``` ⏎ ⏎ ).Normalize(NormalizationForm.FormC); [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=623b1ddcf43b6d783f15e428]

13:17 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> ```code paste, see link``` [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=623b1dea0466b352a43121ee]

13:17 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> looks like ruby can do this via `I18n.transliterate` tho idt there is an implementation of that, at least in stdlib ofc

13:18 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> ah, thanks

13:19 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> I mostly needed this for smaller scripts or apps. Unless someone else has any other idea, I guess I might implement it in dotnet instead.

13:19 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> Thank you again for your help!

13:28 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> yea im thinkin we dont have a way to normalize the char

13:30 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> i know Grapheme support is new coming up, but idt thats what you want

13:31 <FromGitter> <Blacksmoke16> @zblesk:zble.sk https://github.com/crystal-lang/crystal/issues/11223 probably what you'd be looking for?

13:36 <FromGitter> <zblesk:zble.sk> ah, that seems to be it.

18:36 <FromGitter> <nickwesselman> Hey y'all. 👋 ... new to Crystal but heard about the merge of WASM/WASI support and wanted to take it for a spin. I compiled from master and attempted a hello world... seems like I'm missing something in the `wasm-ld` arguments. There's also a `wasm-ld` command output by the build that doesn't work at all for me. ⏎ ⏎ ```code paste, see link``` [https://gitte

18:50 <FromGitter> <nickwesselman> ```code paste, see link``` ⏎ ⏎ Now that I read it, I think this is the error I need to fix. :) Need libc in my /opt/homebrew/lib I assume. [https://gitter.im/crystal-lang/crystal?at=623b6bdc9bd1c71ecab888d6]

19:43 <FromGitter> <nickwesselman> Making some progress but seeing other issues, will post in forum instead.
