    • hexToChar

      private static char hexToChar(String hex)

    • charToGlyphName

      public static String charToGlyphName(char ch)
      Return the glyphname from a character, eg, charToGlyphName('\\') returns "backslash"
      Parameters:
      ch - glyph to evaluate
      Returns:
      the name of the glyph

    • getUnicodeSequenceForGlyphName

      public static String getUnicodeSequenceForGlyphName(String glyphName)
      Returns a String containing the Unicode sequence the given glyph name represents.
      Parameters:
      glyphName - the glyph name
      Returns:
      the Unicode sequence of the glyph (or null if the glyph name is unknown)

    • glyphToString

      @Deprecated public static String glyphToString(String name)

      Parameters:
      name - glyph to evaluate
      Returns:
      the name of the glyph TODO: javadocs for glyphToString and stringToGlyph are confused

      Parameters:
      name - name of the glyph
      Returns:
      the string representation (or an empty String if no match was found)

    • getCharNameAlternativesFor

      public static String[] getCharNameAlternativesFor(String charName)
      Returns an array of char names which can serve as alternatives for the given one.
      Parameters:
      charName - the character name to search alternatives for
      Returns:
      an array of char names or null if no alternatives are available
