MOTTO

The Text::Unidecode motto is:
It's better than nothing!

...in both meanings: 1) seeing the output of unidecode(...) is better than just having all font-unavailable Unicode characters replaced with ``?'''s, or rendered as gibberish; and 2) it's the worst, i.e., there's nothing that Text::Unidecode's algorithm is better than.
