Here's another suggestions on the current Bundle version:

To get the UTF-8 bytes of a character, you're doing the following:

     print "  UTF-8         : " + " 
".join(repr(char.encode("UTF-8")).split('\\x')).lstrip("' 
").rstrip("'").upper()

This only works for characters with a codepoint >= 128. The following 
code should work better:

     print "  UTF-8         : %s" % " ".join(hex(ord(c))[2:].upper() for 
c in char)

Furthermore the code:

    decomp = unicodedata.decomposition(char).lstrip(' ').rstrip(' ')

can be simplyfied to:

    decomp = unicodedata.decomposition(char).strip()

(strip() strips from both ends and stripping all whitespace is the 
default when no argument is given.)

Hope that helps.

Servus,
    Walter
