Tool to obfuscate a text by adding diacritics to it. Diacritical obfuscation allows one to write a text barely readable by humans and not understandable by robots.
Diacritics are symbols that modify letters or characters by adding a modifying grapheme to them. The most common diacritics are the acute accent é, the grave accent à, the circumflex î or the umlaut ö, but there are several dozen others like the tilde ñ, the cedilla ç, the macron, the brief etc.
These characters are coded with a Unicode code from the Combining diacritics marks table with addresses U+0300 to U+036F.
Example: dCode can be changed to d̹͍C̀̃o͒͟ḋ̇ẽ̗
Some characters are very small, others are bigger, dCode randomly draws one or two diacritic.
A simple method is to remove the accents, for example by going through the character string and keeping only the ASCII characters.
The other solution is to remove the Unicode codes from U+0300 to U+036F (but it is possible that some accents remain because some letters are encoded directly with accents in Unicode).
