Usage: /usr/bin/gennorm2 [-options] infiles+ -o outputfilename
Reads the infiles with normalization data and
creates a binary file, or a C source file (--csource), with the data,
or writes a data file with the combined data (--combined).
See https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/transforms/normalization#data-file-syntax
Alternate usage: /usr/bin/gennorm2 [-options] a.txt b.txt minus p.txt q.txt -o outputfilename
Computes the difference of (a, b) minus (p, q) and writes the diff data
in input-file syntax to the outputfilename.
It is then possible to build (p, q, diff) to get the same data as (a, b).
(Useful for computing minimal incremental mapping data files.)
Options:
-h or -? or --help this usage text
-v or --verbose verbose output
-c or --copyright include a copyright notice
-u or --unicode Unicode version, followed by the version like 5.2.0
-s or --sourcedir source directory, followed by the path
-o or --output output filename
--csource writes a C source file with initializers
--combined writes a .txt file (input-file syntax) with the
combined data from all of the input files
--fast optimize the data for fast normalization,
which might increase its size (Writes fully decomposed
regular mappings instead of delta mappings.
You should measure the runtime speed to make sure that
this is a good trade-off.)
