- Update to 6.0.1
* The remove_terminal_escapes step was accidentally not being
used. This version restores it.
* Specified in setup.py that ftfy 6 requires Python 3.6 or later.
* Use a lighter link color when the docs are viewed in dark mode.
- Version 6.0
* New function: ftfy.fix_and_explain() can describe all the
transformations that happen when fixing a string. This is
similar to what ftfy.fixes.fix_encoding_and_explain() did in
previous versions, but it can fix more than the encoding.
* fix_and_explain() and fix_encoding_and_explain() are now in
the top-level ftfy module.
* Changed the heuristic entirely. ftfy no longer needs to
categorize every Unicode character, but only characters that
are expected to appear in mojibake.
* Because of the new heuristic, ftfy will no longer have to
release a new version for every new version of Unicode. It
should also run faster and use less RAM when imported.
* The heuristic ftfy.badness.is_bad(text) can be used to
determine whether there appears to be mojibake in a string.
Some users were already using the old function
sequence_weirdness() for that, but this one is actually
designed for that purpose.
* Instead of a pile of named keyword arguments, ftfy functions
now take in a TextFixerConfig object. The keyword arguments
still work, and become settings that override the defaults in
TextFixerConfig.
* Added support for UTF-8 mixups with Windows-1253 and
Windows-1254.
* Overhauled the documentation: https://ftfy.readthedocs.org

- Update to version 5.6
* The unescape_html function now supports all the HTML5 entities
that appear in html.entities.html5, including those with long
names such as ˝.
* Unescaping of numeric HTML entities now uses the standard library's
html.unescape, making edge cases consistent.
* On top of Python's support for HTML5 entities, ftfy will also
convert HTML escapes of common Latin capital letters that are
(nonstandardly) written in all caps, such as Ñ for Ñ.
