deasciiify
Translate ASCII text into readable non-ASCII text
Use deasciiify to translate ASCII text into readable non-ASCII text. It was
created for the purpose of test data generation to detect unicode bugs and to
use as a fake language on a webpage to simulate how foreign languages can break
webpage layouts and whatnot. The output is deterministic to make automated
testing easier.
