[−][src]Crate ascii

A library that provides ASCII-only string and character types, equivalent to the char, str and String types in the standard library.

Please refer to the readme file to learn about the different feature modes of this crate.

Minimum supported Rust version

The minimum Rust version for 1.0.* releases is 1.33.0. Later 1.y.0 releases might require newer Rust versions, but the three most recent stable releases at the time of publishing will always be supported.
For example this means that if the current stable Rust version is 1.38 when ascii 1.1.0 is released, then ascii 1.1.* will not require a newer Rust version than 1.36.

History

This package included the Ascii types that were removed from the Rust standard library by the 2014-12 reform of the std::ascii module. The API changed significantly since then.

Structs

AsAsciiStrError	Error that is returned when a sequence of `u8` are not all ASCII.
AsciiStr	AsciiStr represents a byte or string slice that only contains ASCII characters.
AsciiString	A growable string stored as an ASCII encoded buffer.
Chars	A copying iterator over the characters of an `AsciiStr`.
CharsMut	A mutable iterator over the characters of an `AsciiStr`.
CharsRef	An immutable iterator over the characters of an `AsciiStr`.
FromAsciiError	A possible error value when converting an `AsciiString` from a byte vector or string. It wraps an `AsAsciiStrError` which you can get through the `ascii_error()` method.
ToAsciiCharError	Error returned by `ToAsciiChar`.

Enums

AsciiChar

An ASCII character. It wraps a u8, with the highest bit always zero.

Traits

AsAsciiStr	Convert slices of bytes or AsciiChar to `AsciiStr`.
AsMutAsciiStr	Convert mutable slices of bytes or AsciiChar to `AsciiStr`.
IntoAsciiString	Convert vectors into `AsciiString`.
ToAsciiChar	Convert `char`, `u8` and other character types to `AsciiChar`.

Functions

caret_decode	Returns the control code represented by a caret notation letter, or `None` if the letter is not used in caret notation.
caret_encode	Terminals use caret notation to display some typed control codes, such as ^D for EOT and ^Z for SUB.
