Fraktur Text Converter

A minimal Rust library for converting ASCII text to Fraktur (Gothic) Unicode characters.

Features

• Convert ASCII alphabetic characters to Fraktur script
• Support for both regular and bold Fraktur styles
• Preserves non-alphabetic characters (numbers, punctuation, spaces)
• Zero dependencies
• Fully tested

Usage

Add this to your Cargo.toml:

[dependencies]
to_fraktur = "0.1.2"

Basic Example

use to_fraktur::{to_fraktur, to_fraktur_bold};

fn main() {
    let text = "Hello World!";
    
    // Regular Fraktur
    println!("{}", to_fraktur(text));
    // Output: ℌ𝔢𝔩𝔩𝔬 𝔚𝔬𝔯𝔩𝔡!
    
    // Bold Fraktur
    println!("{}", to_fraktur_bold(text));
    // Output: 𝕳𝖊𝖑𝖑𝖔 𝖂𝖔𝖗𝖑𝖉!
}

API

to_fraktur(text: &str) -> String

Converts ASCII alphabetic characters to regular Fraktur Unicode characters.

• Uppercase: A-Z → 𝔄-ℨ
• Lowercase: a-z → 𝔞-𝔷
• Non-alphabetic characters remain unchanged

to_fraktur_bold(text: &str) -> String

Converts ASCII alphabetic characters to bold Fraktur Unicode characters.

• Uppercase: A-Z → 𝕬-𝖅
• Lowercase: a-z → 𝖆-𝖟
• Non-alphabetic characters remain unchanged
