help users with a full transliteration for the whole Unicode character set

There is no current way to transliterate all known UTF-8 characters into its ASCII form, so i made a transliteration file, in replacement of i18n-ascii.txt. It is based on the Text::Unidecode Perl library, which i converted into .ini format leaving out the transliterations that are matching ctype_punct and only leaving in transliterations that are matching with ctype_print.

The file can be used as is, or if needed remove the parts not used by your site.

Here is the conversion method used to convert the Perl library's conversion table into .ini format:

header('Content-type: text/plain; charset=utf-8');
$cdata = array();
print "; global transliteration\n[default]\n";

function unichr($num) {
  if ($num < 128) {
    $utf = chr($num);
  }
  else if ($num < 2048) {
    $utf = chr(($num >> 6) + 192) . chr(($num & 63) + 128);
  }
  else if ($num < 65536) {
    $utf = chr(($num >> 12) + 224) . chr((($num >> 6) & 63) + 128) . chr(($num & 63) + 128);
  } 
  else if ($num < 2097152) {
    $utf = chr(($num >> 18) + 240) . chr((($num >> 12) & 63) + 128) . chr((($num >> 6) & 63) + 128) . chr(($num & 63) + 128);
  }
  return $utf;
}

for ($i=0; $i<256; $i++) {
  $fcode = str_repeat('0', 2-strlen(dechex($i))) . dechex($i);
  $fname = 'Unidecode/x'. $fcode .'.pm';

  if (is_file($fname)) {
    $data = file_get_contents($fname);
    preg_match('#\s*=\s*\[((?:(?!\];).)*?)\];#sS', $data, $matches);
    $replacements = preg_replace('/{\s*,\s*}/', '{,}', array_pop($matches));
    
    $cdata[$i] = preg_replace_callback(array('!qq{((?:[^}]|\\})*?)}!', "!['\"]([^']*?)['\"]!"), create_function(
               '$matches',
               '$char = array_pop($matches);'.
    'return trim(stripcslashes($char), "[ \n\t\r\0\x0b\\\/]");'),
      preg_split('/,\s+/', $replacements));

    foreach ($cdata[$i] as $code=>$charmap) {
      $char = unichr(($i << 8) + $code);
      if (preg_match('/^\S*$/', $charmap) && $code < 256 && trim($charmap) && trim($char) && ctype_print($charmap) && !ctype_punct($charmap) && $char != $charmap) {
        print $char .' = "'. $charmap ."\"\n";
      }
    }
  }
