Platform-Independent Text Editor -- chromium based browser extension

Nuance - Be Bold

This is a tool I intially developped in order to achieve platform-independent text editing capabilities from within chromium based browsers, which has evolved into a unicode multitool for convenient browser based non-standard input transformation. This tool will allow you to send bold and italic text even in web applications where formal text editing is restricted and markdown is not available. This is achieved by using unicode character equivalent substitution instead of traditional bold and italic character transforms. A wide range of web systems are capable of rendering the bold and italic text generated by this extension. The tool's capabilities have been extended to produce interesting unicode substitutions and insertions on demand.

Features

𝐁𝐎𝐋𝐃 : Substitute selected text with bold unicode character equivalent

𝐼𝑇𝐴𝐿𝐼𝐶 : Substitute selected text with italic unicode character equivalent

x ⇾ █ : Redact selected text by substituting all characters with unicode Full Blocks

abc ⇾ ɑЬϲ : Substitute selected text with valid variable name unicode homoglyphs

50 x ⇧ : Inject fifty Diacritical Mark Above characters at end of selection

123 ⇄ 321 : Inject right-to-left override in front of selection

More features will be added in the near future!
