Description

The m17n library provides following facilities to handle multilingual text.

\* M-text: A data structure for a multilingual text.  It is
  basically a string but with attributes called text property, and
  is designed to substitute for the C string.  It is the most
  important object of the m17n library.

\* Functions for creating and processing M-texts.

\* Functions for converting M-texts from/to strings encoded in
  various existing formats.

\* A huge character space, which contains all the Unicode
  characters and more non-Unicode characters.

\* Chartable: A data structure that contains per-character
  information efficiently.

\* Functions for inputting and displaying M-text on a window system.

The documentation is available through devel/m17n-docs.

4906de93e5 Lucas Holt devel/m17n-lib: update to 1.8.5 (#1026)
a05b377b53 Lucas Holt *: bump PORTREVISION for the textproc/libxml2 2.15 shared library change (#848)
`textproc/libxml2` 2.15 changed SONAME from `libxml2.so.2` to `libxml2.so.16` **and** removed ELF symbol versioning entirely — the new library defines no `LIBXML2_*` versions at all. Consumers built against the old library were never rebuilt, so they still record a dependency on `libxml2.so.2` plus version requirements nothing can satisfy, and fail at load time: ``` ld-elf.so.1: /usr/local/lib/libxml2.so.2: version LIBXML2_2.4.30 required by /usr/local/lib/libevdocument3.so.4 not defined ``` ### Scope `Tools/scripts/bump_revision.pl -f -l textproc/libxml2` — **436 Makefiles**: 323 revisions incremented, 113 gained a `PORTREVISION` line. The diff touches nothing but `PORTREVISION` lines (verified: `git diff -U0` shows no other changed line), and spot-checked ports still …
