+ * @Title: Unicode Manipulation
+ * @Short_description: functions operating on Unicode characters and
+ * UTF-8 strings
+ * @See_also: g_locale_to_utf8(), g_locale_from_utf8()
+ *
+ * This section describes a number of functions for dealing with
+ * Unicode characters and strings. There are analogues of the
+ * traditional `ctype.h` character classification and case conversion
+ * functions, UTF-8 analogues of some string utility functions,
+ * functions to perform normalization, case conversion and collation
+ * on UTF-8 strings and finally functions to convert between the UTF-8,
+ * UTF-16 and UCS-4 encodings of Unicode.
+ *
+ * The implementations of the Unicode functions in GLib are based
+ * on the Unicode Character Data tables, which are available from
+ * [www.unicode.org](http://www.unicode.org/).
+ * GLib 2.8 supports Unicode 4.0, GLib 2.10 supports Unicode 4.1,
+ * GLib 2.12 supports Unicode 5.0, GLib 2.16.3 supports Unicode 5.1,
+ * GLib 2.30 supports Unicode 6.0.
