It is used to prepare +internationalized strings (such as domain name labels, +usernames, and passwords) in order to increase the likelihood +that string input and string comparison work in ways that make +sense for typical users throughout the world. The library +contains a generic Stringprep implementation that does Unicode +3.2 NFKC normalization, mapping and prohibition of characters, +and bidirectional character handling. Profiles for iSCSI, +Kerberos 5, Nameprep, SASL, and XMPP are included. Punycode and +ASCII Compatible Encoding (ACE) via IDNA are supported. + +WWW: http://www.gnu.org/software/libidn |
