# Replaces non-ASCII characters with an ASCII approximation, or if none
# exists, a replacement character which defaults to "?".
#
# transliterate('Ærøskøbing')
# # => "AEroskobing"
#
# Default approximations are provided for Western/Latin characters,
# e.g, "ø", "ñ", "é", "ß", etc.
#
# This method is I18n aware, so you can set up custom approximations for a
# locale. This can be useful, for example, to transliterate German's "ü"
# and "ö" to "ue" and "oe", or to add support for transliterating Russian
# to ASCII.
#
# In order to make your custom transliterations available, you must set
# them as the i18n.transliterate.rule i18n key:
#
# # Store the transliterations in locales/de.yml
# i18n:
# transliterate:
# rule:
# ü: "ue"
# ö: "oe"
#
# # Or set them using Ruby
# I18n.backend.store_translations(:de, i18n: {
# transliterate: {
# rule: {
# 'ü' => 'ue',
# 'ö' => 'oe'
# }
# }
# })
#
# The value for i18n.transliterate.rule can be a simple Hash that
# maps characters to ASCII approximations as shown above, or, for more
# complex requirements, a Proc:
#
# I18n.backend.store_translations(:de, i18n: {
# transliterate: {
# rule: ->(string) { MyTransliterator.transliterate(string) }
# }
# })
#
# Now you can have different transliterations for each locale:
#
# I18n.locale = :en
# transliterate('Jürgen')
# # => "Jurgen"
#
# I18n.locale = :de
# transliterate('Jürgen')
# # => "Juergen"
