az

Going from A to Z in different ways. It will translate Latin ASCII characters to funky Unicode ones.

Setup

Make sure you have Ruby installed and installing gems works properly. Then do:

$ gem install az

Usage

Pass the string to convert to az:

From CLI

$ az "character.construction" --to bold
# 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫.𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧

You can also directly copy to your system clipboard using the --copy option

To see a list of all fonts included, run: $ az --fonts

From Ruby

require "az/kernel_method"
az "character.construction", :fraktur
# => "𝖈𝖍𝖆𝖗𝖆𝖈𝖙𝖊𝖗.𝖈𝖔𝖓𝖘𝖙𝖗𝖚𝖈𝖙𝖎𝖔𝖓"

Included Fonts

Please note: Be sure to understand that the output from az does not change the real font, but displays these special "font" codepoints within the actual font.
