  • Update to Unicode 15.1.

  • Add "script" property – also supported in the list and print commands:

    % uni identify -f '%(script l:auto) %(cpoint) %(name)' 'a Ω'
    Script CPoint Name
    Latin  U+0061 LATIN SMALL LETTER A
    Common U+0020 SPACE
    Greek  U+03A9 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER OMEGA
    
    % uni list scripts
    Scripts:
    Name                    Assigned
    Adlam                         83
    Ahom                          54
    Anatolian Hieroglyphs        582
    …
    
    % uni print 'script:linear a'
    Showing script Linear A
         CPoint  Dec    UTF8        HTML       Name (Cat)
    '𐘀'  U+10600 67072  f0 90 98 80 𐘀  LINEAR A SIGN AB001 (Other_Letter)
    '𐘁'  U+10601 67073  f0 90 98 81 𐘁  LINEAR A SIGN AB002 (Other_Letter)
    '𐘂'  U+10602 67074  f0 90 98 82 𐘂  LINEAR A SIGN AB003 (Other_Letter)
    …
    
  • Add "unicode" property, which tells you in which Unicode version a codepoint was introduced:

    % uni identify -f '%(unicode l:auto) %(cpoint l:auto) %(name)' a𐘂🫁
    Unicode CPoint  Name
    1.1     U+0061  LATIN SMALL LETTER A
    7.0     U+10602 LINEAR A SIGN AB003
    13.0    U+1FAC1 LUNGS
    
  • Show unprintable control characters as the open box (␣, U+2423) instead of the replacement character (�, U+FFFD). It already did that for C1 control characters, and U+FFFD looked more like a bug than intentional. The -raw/-r flag still overrides this.

  • Always print Private Use characters as-is for %(char) instead of using U+FFFD replacement character. It's usually safe to print this, and having to use -raw is confusing.

  • ls command is now an alias for `list.
