I am developing an application in C and it must accept characters from every language. I am targeting Linux/Windows. What is the best way to implementing this, considering that performance is important in this case?

There are a few libraries that can help you handling Unicode and recoding between different formats. – Some programmer dude Dec 26 '16 at 12:46

1Also, when you say "performance is important" you first need to ask yourself: Is it *really*? Never code for "performance", code for readability and maintainability first and foremost. Then you *measure*, *profile* and *benchmark* to find possible bottlenecks (if it's not acceptable as it is) and tune those only. Don't fall into the trap of premature optimization. – Some programmer dude Dec 26 '16 at 12:46
