unifuzz(1) General Commands Manual unifuzz(1) NAME unifuzz - Emit strings designed to test Unicode handling SYNOPSIS unifuzz ([option flags]) DESCRIPTION unifuzz emits strings designed to test the ability of programs intended to accept Unicode input to handle unexpected input. These include: characters from all Unicode ranges, Private Use characters, surrogates, undefined characters, non-characters, control characters, exotic space characters, sequences violating normalization rules, unexpected se- quences (e.g. a base character from one range followed by a combining character from another range), and long sequences of combining charac- ters. It can also generate very long lines, strings containing embed- ded nulls, and ill-formed UTF-8. COMMAND LINE FLAGS -b Restrict the output to the Basic Multilingual Plane (Plane 0). -g Do not emit specific characters. -h Print usage information. -l Emit very long lines. -n Emit string with embedded nulls. -q Be quiet. Omit commentary. -r <number> Set the number of random characters to emit. -S Scan ranges - emit a character from each range. -s <seed> Set the seed for the random number generator. -u Emit ill-formed UTF-8. -v Print version information. The sequence of random characters is determined by a pseudorandom num- ber generator, so the same sequence can be obtained by setting the seed to the same value. If not set on the command line, a seed is chosen based on the time of execution. The seed used is included in the output in a line of the form "Seed = NNNNNN" immediately preceding the random character sequence. Note that in order to obtain the same sequence it is necessary to keep the same setting for restriction of output to the BMP.
