//! A crate for converting a string containing only printable ASCII and newlines
//! into a single unicode grapheme cluster and back.
//! Provides the non-macro functionality of the crate [`zalgo-codec`](https://docs.rs/zalgo-codec/latest/zalgo_codec/).
//!
//! There are two ways of interacting with the codec.
//! The first is to call the encoding and decoding functions directly,
//! and the second is to use the [`ZalgoString`] wrapper type.
//!
//! # Examples
//!
//! Encode a string to a grapheme cluster with [`zalgo_encode`]:
//! ```
//! # use zalgo_codec_common::{Error, zalgo_encode};
//! let s = "Zalgo";
//! let encoded = zalgo_encode(s)?;
//! assert_eq!(encoded, "É̺͇͌͏");
//! # Ok::<(), Error>(())
//! ```
//! Decode a grapheme cluster back into a string:
//! ```
//! # use zalgo_codec_common::zalgo_decode;
//! # use std::string::FromUtf8Error;
//! let encoded = "É̺͇͌͏";
//! let s = zalgo_decode(encoded)?;
//! assert_eq!(s, "Zalgo");
//! # Ok::<(), FromUtf8Error>(())
//! ```
//! The [`ZalgoString`] type can be used to encode a string and handle the result in various ways:
//! ```
//! # use zalgo_codec_common::{ZalgoString, Error};
//! let s = "Zalgo";
//! let zstr = ZalgoString::new(s)?;
//!
//! // Implements PartialEq with common string types
//! assert_eq!(zstr, "É̺͇͌͏");
//!
//! // Utility functions
//! assert_eq!(zstr.len(), 2 * s.len() + 1);
//! assert_eq!(zstr.decoded_len(), s.len());
//!
//! // Iterate over bytes and chars, in both encoded and decoded form
//! assert_eq!(zstr.bytes().next(), Some(69));
//! assert_eq!(zstr.decoded_bytes().nth_back(2), Some(b'l'));
//! assert_eq!(zstr.chars().nth(1), Some('\u{33a}'));
//! assert_eq!(zstr.decoded_chars().next_back(), Some('o'));
//!
//! // Decode inplace
//! assert_eq!(zstr.into_decoded_string(), "Zalgo");
//! # Ok::<(), Error>(())
//! ```
//!
//! # Features
//!
//! `std` *(enabled by default)*: links the standard library and uses it to implement the [`std::error::Error`] trait for the provided [`Error`] type.
//! If this feature is not enabled the library is `#[no_std]`, but still uses the `alloc` crate.
//!
//! `serde`: implements the [`Serialize`](serde::Serialize) and [`Deserialize`](serde::Deserialize) traits
//! from [`serde`](https://crates.io/crates/serde) for [`ZalgoString`].
//!
//! # Explanation
//!
//! Characters U+0300–U+036F are the combining characters for unicode Latin.
//! The fun thing about combining characters is that you can add as many of these characters
//! as you like to the original character and it does not create any new symbols,
//! it only adds symbols on top of the character. It's supposed to be used in order to
//! create characters such as `á` by taking a normal `a` and adding another character
//! to give it the mark (U+301, in this case). Fun fact: Unicode doesn't specify
//! any limit on the number of these characters.
//! Conveniently, this gives us 112 different characters we can map to,
//! which nicely maps to the ASCII character range 0x20 -> 0x7F, aka all the non-control characters.
//! The only issue is that we can't have new lines in this system, so to fix that,
//! we can simply map 0x7F (DEL) to 0x0A (LF).
//! This can be represented as `(CHARACTER - 11) % 133 - 21`, and decoded with `(CHARACTER + 22) % 133 + 10`.
//!
//! # Experiment with the codec
//!
//! There is an executable available for experimenting with the codec on text and files.
//! It can be installed with `cargo install zalgo-codec --features binary`.
//! You can optionally enable the `gui` feature during installation to include a rudimentary GUI mode for the program.
