A multitude of character string/text/natural language
    processing tools: pattern searching (e.g., with 'Java'-like regular
    expressions or the 'Unicode' collation algorithm), random string generation,
    case mapping, string transliteration, concatenation, sorting, padding,
    wrapping, Unicode normalisation, date-time formatting and parsing,
    and many more. They are fast, consistent, convenient, and -
    owing to the use of the 'ICU' (International Components for Unicode)
    library - portable across all locales and platforms.
