Frequently asked questions

What counts as a special character?

Anything outside your keep-sets: symbols, emoji, currency signs, math operators and other non-letter characters are removed in one pass.

Are accented letters kept?

Yes. Letters uses Unicode letter matching, so accented characters like e with an accent and non-Latin scripts count as letters.

What is basic punctuation?

Common marks: period, comma, exclamation, question mark, colon, semicolon, quotes, brackets, dash, underscore, slash, at sign, hash, percent, ampersand, asterisk, plus, equals and similar.
