I was trying to search for the 24 small Greek letters with a regexp like ^greek small letter \w+$
based on what I was seeing using the -d flag.
After actually looking in the code at argsAreRegexps(), I can see the internal format of the string that each regexp is applied to looks like, {Codepoint}\t{Name}[; {Unicode 1.0 Name}]
; the square brackets denote that the semicolon and Unicode 1.0 name are optional. With that knowledge I was able to come up with -d -g '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+;'
(which gets me 31 letters, the closest I think I'll get).
I'd like to see at least a small mention in documentation to reflect this and hopefully give users some insight into how to compose their regexps.
When specifying multiple regexps with -g, like-g 'regexp1' 'regexp2'
, the final list of codes reflects the order in which they were found by the individual regexps. Also, if regexp1 and regexp2 have any overlap in their matches, the final list of codes will have duplicates.
In the example below the first two regexps are identical, the third captures the special case of lamda which has a Unicode 1.0 name:
unicode -t -g '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+;'
ͱαβγδεζηθικμνξοπρστυφχψωϛϝϟϡϸϻͱαβγδεζηθικμνξοπρστυφχψωϛϝϟϡϸϻλ
I'd like codes to at least be deduplicated before output (the "found order" can be preserved):
unicode -t -g '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+;'
ͱαβγδεζηθικμνξοπρστυφχψωϛϝϟϡϸϻλ
and optionally sorted, lamda now prints after kappa:
unicode -t -g -s '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+$' '\tgreek small letter \w+;'
ͱαβγδεζηθικλμνξοπρστυφχψωϛϝϟϡϸϻ
It would be really helpful a readme can be created with installation and usage examples
