What I'm trying to do: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/...ir-equivalent-such-as-a-for-a/2393966#2393966 edit: HttpUtility isn't available because System.Web isn't recognized... any way to get around this? Making iOS app if that makes any difference. original post: Code (csharp): string decomposed = input.Normalize(System.Text.NormalizationForm.FormD); char[] filtered = decomposed.Where(c => char.GetUnicodeCategory(c) != System.Globalization.UnicodeCategory.NonSpacingMark).ToArray(); string newString = new String(filtered); Unity doesn't like the .Where(). Is there a way to get that to work or is there a way I can just rewrite it? edit: using System.Linq; got it to compile. thanks to Zerot on irc
