Crate ascii[−][src]

A library that provides ASCII-only string and character types, equivalent to the char, str and String types in the standard library.

Please refer to the readme file to learn about the different feature modes of this crate.

Requirements

The minimum supported Rust version is 1.9.0
Enabling the quickcheck feature requires Rust 1.12.0
Enabling the serde feature requires Rust 1.13.0

History

This package included the Ascii types that were removed from the Rust standard library by the 2014-12 reform of the std::ascii module. The API changed significantly since then.

Structs

AsAsciiStrError	Error that is returned when a sequence of `u8` are not all ASCII.
AsciiStr	AsciiStr represents a byte or string slice that only contains ASCII characters.
AsciiString	A growable string stored as an ASCII encoded buffer.
FromAsciiError	A possible error value when converting an `AsciiString` from a byte vector or string. It wraps an `AsAsciiStrError` which you can get through the `ascii_error()` method.
Lines	An iterator over the lines of the internal character array.
ToAsciiCharError	Error returned by `ToAsciiChar`.

Enums

AsciiChar

An ASCII character. It wraps a u8, with the highest bit always zero.

Traits

AsAsciiStr	Convert slices of bytes to `AsciiStr`.
AsMutAsciiStr	Convert mutable slices of bytes to `AsciiStr`.
IntoAsciiString	Convert vectors into `AsciiString`.
ToAsciiChar	Convert `char`, `u8` and other character types to `AsciiChar`.

Functions

caret_decode	Returns the control code represented by a caret notation letter, or `None` if the letter is not used in caret notation.
caret_encode	Terminals use caret notation to display some typed control codes, such as ^D for EOT and ^Z for SUB.

Type Definitions

Chars	An immutable iterator over the characters of an `AsciiStr`.
CharsMut	A mutable iterator over the characters of an `AsciiStr`.
