How to decode HTML Entities in C?

Question

I\'m interested in unescaping text for example: \ maps to \\ in C. Does anyone know of a good library?

Answer 1

For another open source reference in C to decoding these HTML entities you can check out the command line utility uni2ascii/ascii2uni. The relevant files are enttbl.{c,h} for entity lookup and putu8.c which down converts from UTF32 to UTF8.
