Re: [gutvol-d] Unicode UTF-8 Compatible Version of Gutcheck

Bookloupe supports UTF8, but does the same checks as
Gutcheck. It doesn't check Unicode quotes. No idea what its developer's
The alpha versions do have (some) support for additional checks
that have been requested and approved by Charlie. I'm hoping to get
back to it in April, finish of the pending requests and get a new
version released.

I'd like
  to give it a try. Can you upload it somewhere? Or you can send me a
  copy as a zipped attachment.
...

...
...
And if
  you can mention the etext numbers of several of the files you tested
  it against, I can cross-check them with Gutcheck and Bookloupe
  (http://www.juiblex.co.uk/pgdp/bookloupe/index.html).

I’ve created a Unicode UTF-8 Compatible Version of
    Gutcheck, calling it gutcheck_u -- if anyone wants to try it.
...
...
...
...
...
...
This was primarily an exercise in finding and changing
    8-bit char coding dependencies to 16-bit widechar coding
    dependencies, but it did require some additional coding.
...
...
...
...
...
...
Currently it is a somewhat Windows-dependent
    implementation, so if you want to run it on another OS it would take
    a little bit of work.
...
...
...
...
...
...
I find it more pleasant to use if one’s development file
    format of choice is UTF-8, and/or if one are doing such things as
    left-handed / right-handed quotes.
...
...
...
...
...
...
Testing it on PG released files I am in fact finding a
    fair amount of left / right handedness errors that are not currently
    being discovered.
...
...
...
...
...
...
Let me know if you want to try it, same distribution
    terms as the original.
