This basically means that we now have an autogenerating typecheck
and case-conversion tool.
Don't freak out when you see the added LOC. Given we now have
an additional mapping to the uppercase-characters, some ranges got
"lost" and have to be written literally by the generating awk-script.
The runetypebody.h was generated by myself using my modified version
of mkrunetype.awk and I'll push the changed version as soon as this
has been discussed on the ml.
If you worry about speed, consider, that bsearch is just the right
tool for this job and can even handle a long array like this.
sbase - suckless unix tools
===========================
sbase is a collection of unix tools that are inherently portable
across UNIX and UNIX-like systems.
The following tools are implemented ('*' == finished, '#' == UTF-8 support,
'=' == implicit UTF-8 support):

The complement of sbase is ubase[1] which is Linux-specific and
provides all the non-portable tools. Together they are intended to
form a base system similar to busybox but much smaller and suckless.
Building
--------
To build sbase, simply type make. You may have to fiddle with
config.mk depending on your system.
You can also build sbase-box, which generates a single binary
containing all the required tools. You can then symlink the
individual tools to sbase-box.
Ideally you will want to statically link sbase. If you are on Linux
we recommend using musl-libc[2].
Portability
-----------
sbase has been compiled on a variety of different operating systems,
including Linux, *BSD, OSX, Haiku, Solaris, SCO OpenServer and others.
Various combinations of operating systems and architectures have also
been built.
You can build sbase with gcc, clang, tcc, nwcc and pcc.
