rusty_symbols: named Unicode glyph constants

Semantically named Unicode glyph constants for Rust UIs — ASCII-safe source, presentation pinned

Replaces: raw Unicode literals scattered through source

What is rusty_symbols, the named Unicode glyph crate?

rusty_symbols is semantically named Unicode glyph constants for Rust UIs. Source stays ASCII-safe, presentation is pinned, and raw Unicode literals do not have to be scattered through the code.

What rusty_symbols replaces

rusty_symbols is named Unicode glyph constants for Rust UIs. The source stays ASCII-safe, and the glyph a screen shows is pinned to a name.

Why rusty_symbols is a named Unicode glyph constants

What rusty_symbols keeps from raw Unicode literals scattered through source

rusty_symbols keeps the glyph and drops the raw literal. A name in code maps to one character, so a UI does not paste Unicode into every file.

Where rusty_symbols fits

rusty_symbols sits between rusty_tokens and rusty_a11y. Tokens decide color and space. Symbols name the mark. rusty_a11y labels that mark for assistive tech.
