utf8_to_cp ( UTF8_BUFF )

Return the Unicode Code Point (unsigned long) of the given UTF8_BUFF (char/string) passed

is_utf8 ( UTF8_BUFF )

Return true if the given UTF8_BUFF is a valid UTF8 byte sequence

to_utf8 ( STRING )

Convert a given STRING (in any encoding in principle) to its UTF8 byte sequence (string) representation

to_utf8_foldedcase ( STRING )

Convert a given STRING to its UTF8 case-folded (lang independent lowercase) byte sequence (string) representation

utf8lc ( STRING )

lc() for UTF8 chars i.e. using to_utf8_foldedcase() above
