This changes the code blocks from 4-space indentation to ``` fences for better syntax highlighting and future linting support. Minor On-the-fly changes for typos and highlight breaking markdown have been made. JSON-Style objects have been changed so their closing bracket is on the same line as the opening one. Known issues: * Not every JSON / object notation has been improved. Should make another run for this. * Some example functions break hightlighting due to various combinations of brackets. However changing them means leaving the code style. Fixes: https://github.com/nodejs/node/issues/4726 PR-URL: https://github.com/nodejs/node/pull/4733 Reviewed-By: Roman Reiss <me@silverwind.io>

punycode
Stability: 2 - Stable
Punycode.js is bundled with Node.js v0.6.2+. Use require('punycode')
to
access it. (To use it with other Node.js versions, use npm to install the
punycode
module first.)
punycode.decode(string)
Converts a Punycode string of ASCII-only symbols to a string of Unicode symbols.
// decode domain name parts
punycode.decode('maana-pta'); // 'mañana'
punycode.decode('--dqo34k'); // '☃-⌘'
punycode.encode(string)
Converts a string of Unicode symbols to a Punycode string of ASCII-only symbols.
// encode domain name parts
punycode.encode('mañana'); // 'maana-pta'
punycode.encode('☃-⌘'); // '--dqo34k'
punycode.toASCII(domain)
Converts a Unicode string representing a domain name to Punycode. Only the non-ASCII parts of the domain name will be converted, i.e. it doesn't matter if you call it with a domain that's already in ASCII.
// encode domain names
punycode.toASCII('mañana.com'); // 'xn--maana-pta.com'
punycode.toASCII('☃-⌘.com'); // 'xn----dqo34k.com'
punycode.toUnicode(domain)
Converts a Punycode string representing a domain name to Unicode. Only the Punycoded parts of the domain name will be converted, i.e. it doesn't matter if you call it on a string that has already been converted to Unicode.
// decode domain names
punycode.toUnicode('xn--maana-pta.com'); // 'mañana.com'
punycode.toUnicode('xn----dqo34k.com'); // '☃-⌘.com'
punycode.ucs2
punycode.ucs2.decode(string)
Creates an array containing the numeric code point values of each Unicode symbol in the string. While JavaScript uses UCS-2 internally, this function will convert a pair of surrogate halves (each of which UCS-2 exposes as separate characters) into a single code point, matching UTF-16.
punycode.ucs2.decode('abc'); // [0x61, 0x62, 0x63]
// surrogate pair for U+1D306 tetragram for centre:
punycode.ucs2.decode('\uD834\uDF06'); // [0x1D306]
punycode.ucs2.encode(codePoints)
Creates a string based on an array of numeric code point values.
punycode.ucs2.encode([0x61, 0x62, 0x63]); // 'abc'
punycode.ucs2.encode([0x1D306]); // '\uD834\uDF06'
punycode.version
A string representing the current Punycode.js version number.
