Usage

ucp2label(x)

ucp_sort(x, decreasing = FALSE)

is_combining_character(x, pua_combining = character(0))

decreasing

If TRUE do a decreasing sort.

pua_combining

Additional Unicode code points to be considered as a “combining” character such as characters defined in the Private Use Area (PUA) of a font.
