DESCRIPTION
       These routines convert between UTF-8 strings and Tcl_UniChars.  A Tcl_UniChar is  a
       Unicode character represented as an unsigned, fixed-size quantity.  A UTF-8 charac-
       ter is a Unicode character represented  as  a  varying-length  sequence  of  up  to
       TCL_UTF_MAX  bytes.  A multibyte UTF-8 sequence consists of a lead byte followed by
       some number of trail bytes.

       TCL_UTF_MAX is the maximum number of bytes that it takes to represent  one  Unicode
       character in the UTF-8 representation.

       Tcl_UniCharToUtf  stores  the  Tcl_UniChar ch as a UTF-8 string in starting at buf.
       The return value is the number of bytes stored in buf.

       Tcl_UtfToUniChar reads one UTF-8 character starting at  src  and  stores  it  as  a
       Tcl_UniChar  in  *chPtr.   The  return value is the number of bytes read from src..
       The caller must ensure that the source buffer is long enough such that this routine
       does  not  run  off  the  end and dereference non-existent or random memory; if the
       source buffer is known to be null-terminated, this will not happen.  If  the  input
       is not in proper UTF-8 format, Tcl_UtfToUniChar will store the first byte of src in
       *chPtr as a Tcl_UniChar between 0x0000 and 0x00ff and return 1.

       Tcl_UniCharToUtfDString converts the given Unicode string  to  UTF-8,  storing  the
       result in a previously-initialized Tcl_DString.  You must specify the length of the
       given Unicode string.  The return value is a pointer to the UTF-8 representation of
       the  Unicode  string.   Storage  for the return value is appended to the end of the
       Tcl_DString.

       Tcl_UtfToUniCharDString converts the given UTF-8 string  to  Unicode,  storing  the
       result  in  the  previously-initialized  Tcl_DString.   you  may either specify the
       length of the given UTF-8 string or "-1",  in  which  case  Tcl_UtfToUniCharDString
       uses  strlen to calculate the length.  The return value is a pointer to the Unicode
       representation of the UTF-8 string.  Storage for the return value  is  appended  to
       the  end  of the Tcl_DString.  The Unicode string is terminated with a Unicode null
       character.

       Tcl_UniCharLen corresponds to strlen for Unicode characters.  It  accepts  a  null-
       terminated  Unicode string and returns the number of Unicode characters (not bytes)
       in that string.

       Tcl_UniCharNcmp and Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp  correspond  to  strncmp  and  strncasecmp,
       respectively,  for  Unicode  characters.   They accepts two null-terminated Unicode
       strings and the number of characters to compare.  Both strings are assumed to be at
       least  len characters long. Tcl_UniCharNcmp  compares the two strings character-by-
       character according to the Unicode  character  ordering.   It  returns  an  integer
       greater  than,  equal to, or less than 0 if the first string is greater than, equal
       to, or less than the second string respectively.  Tcl_UniCharNcasecmp is  the  Uni-
       code case insensitive version.

       Tcl_UniCharCaseMatch  is the Unicode equivalent to Tcl_StringCaseMatch.  It accepts |
       a null-terminated Unicode string, a Unicode pattern, and a boolean value specifying |
       whether  the  match should be case sensitive and returns whether the string matches |
       the pattern.

       Tcl_UtfNcmp corresponds to strncmp for UTF-8 strings. It  accepts  two  null-termi-
       nated  UTF-8  strings  and  the number of characters to compare.  (Both strings are
       assumed to be at least len characters long.)  Tcl_UtfNcmp compares the two  strings
       character-by-character  according to the Unicode character ordering.  It returns an
       integer greater than, equal to, or less than 0 if the first string is greater than,
       equal to, or less than the second string respectively.

       Tcl_UtfNcasecmp  corresponds  to  strncasecmp  for UTF-8 strings.  It is similar to
       Tcl_UtfNcmp except comparisons ignore differences in  case  when  comparing  upper,
       lower or title case characters.

       Tcl_UtfCharComplete returns 1 if the source UTF-8 string src of length len bytes is
       long enough to be decoded by Tcl_UtfToUniChar, or 0 otherwise.  This function  does
       not  guarantee  that  the UTF-8 string is properly formed.  This routine is used by
       procedures that are operating on a byte at a time  and  need  to  know  if  a  full
       Tcl_UniChar has been seen.

       Tcl_NumUtfChars  corresponds to strlen for UTF-8 strings.  It returns the number of
       Tcl_UniChars that are represented by the UTF-8  string  src.   The  length  of  the
       source  string  is len bytes.  If the length is negative, all bytes up to the first
       null byte are used.

       Tcl_UtfFindFirst corresponds to strchr for UTF-8 strings.  It returns a pointer  to
       the first occurrence of the Tcl_UniChar ch in the null-terminated UTF-8 string src.
       The null terminator is considered part of the UTF-8 string.

       Tcl_UtfFindLast corresponds to strrchr for UTF-8 strings.  It returns a pointer  to
       the  last occurrence of the Tcl_UniChar ch in the null-terminated UTF-8 string src.
       The null terminator is considered part of the UTF-8 string.

       Given src, a pointer to some location in a  UTF-8  string,  Tcl_UtfNext  returns  a
       pointer to the next UTF-8 character in the string.  The caller must not ask for the
       next character after the last character in the string if the string is  not  termi-
       nated by a null character.

       Given  src, a pointer to some location in a UTF-8 string (or to a null byte immedi-
       ately following such a string), Tcl_UtfPrev returns a pointer to the  closest  pre-
       ceding  byte  that  starts  a UTF-8 character.  This function will not back up to a
       position before start, the start of the UTF-8 string.  If src was already at start,
       the return value will be start.

       Tcl_UniCharAtIndex  corresponds to a C string array dereference or the Pascal Ord()
       function.  It returns the Tcl_UniChar represented at the specified  character  (not
       byte) index in the UTF-8 string src.  The source string must contain at least index
       characters.  Behavior is undefined if a negative index is given.

       Tcl_UtfAtIndex returns a pointer to the specified character (not byte) index in the
       UTF-8  string src.  The source string must contain at least index characters.  This
       is equivalent to calling Tcl_UtfNext index times.  If a negative  index  is  given,
       the return pointer points to the first character in the source string.

       Tcl_UtfBackslash  is  a  utility procedure used by several of the Tcl commands.  It
       parses a backslash sequence and stores the properly formed UTF-8  character  repre-
       sented  by  the  backslash  sequence in the output buffer dst.  At most TCL_UTF_MAX
       bytes are stored in the buffer.  Tcl_UtfBackslash modifies *readPtr to contain  the
       number  of bytes in the backslash sequence, including the backslash character.  The
       return value is the number of bytes stored in the output buffer.

       See the Tcl manual entry for information on the valid backslash sequences.  All  of
       the  sequences described in the Tcl manual entry are supported by Tcl_UtfBackslash.
