A unicode explorer and previewer in the terminal.

Review this script before executing in your terminal.
sauva is a terminal unicode explorer for looking up characters and examining the code points in text with a glyph preview.
It finds characters by code point, name or the character itself, then shows their Unicode properties and encodings in an inspector. Glyph previews use installed fonts and require a supported terminal with support for the Kitty graphics protocol.
You can compare the original text across four normalization forms, inspect the changes and copy a selected result to the clipboard. sauva also has Vim-style navigation and key bindings for those familiar with "j / k" keyboard navigation.
Developers can use sauva to quickly identify invisible characters and investigate differences between displayed text and its underlying representation.
