| Byte/unicode conversions |
| ------------------------ |
| These functions are used extensively within Tornado itself, |
| but should not be directly needed by most applications. Note that |
| much of the complexity of these functions comes from the fact that |
| Tornado supports both Python 2 and Python 3. |
| |
| .. autofunction:: utf8 |
| .. autofunction:: to_unicode |
