Have you considered adding a command line interface to your library, so people can use it on the shell?

I know there already existing options out there:

  • $ recode --diacritics ltex..utf8 < manuscript.tex (looks unmaintained: https://github.com/pinard/Recode)
    Adapting the C Code for more latex codes is more work.
  • Perl LaTeX::Decode $ latex2utf8 (I do not know perl)

However, your library is much more complete and I am also familiar with python to add things I am missing. I know it is a little bit of work. But a basic version should not be too hard: reading from STDIN, filtering it through your library and writing to STDOUT.
