I was planning to explain it in the Wiki. But anyway, the way to update 
it is just by calling `pdf-text-download-and-generate-ucd.sh' with no 
additional arguments. The script will download the required Unicode 
Character Database files and will generate the source code. The real 
thing that should be documented is where (in which file) should be 
placed each self-generated source. As soon as I finish the unit tests 
for the text module, I will provide a full explanation both in the wiki 
and in a README.Unicode as you suggested.
