Small helper browser console function for pulling info out of the Unicode Confusables site

extract-unicode-confusables.js

function getConfusableCharacters() {
  const confusableCharactersTable = document.querySelector('table:has(h3)')

  const tableRows = confusableCharactersTable.querySelectorAll('tr')
  const unicodeRow = Array.from(tableRows[1].children)
  const nameRow = Array.from(tableRows[2].children)

  let values = ''
  for (let i = 0; i < unicodeRow.length; i++) {
    const unicode = unicodeRow[i].innerText
    const name = nameRow[i].innerText

    values += `'\\u{${unicode}}', // ${name}\n`
  }

  return values
}

This script is intended to be run from the browser console when on the Unicode Confusables site
https://util.unicode.org/UnicodeJsps/confusables.jsp

Search for the character that you want to get the confusables for, then open the console, paste this function code, and then run the code.

getConfusableCharacters()

If in chrome, you can simplify getting the result into your clipboard by using the built in copy(...) function

copy(getConfusableCharacters())

For example, given a search for /: https://util.unicode.org/UnicodeJsps/confusables.jsp?a=%2F&r=None
