$ textr foo.md -t typographic-quotes -t typographic-quotes
# load from file, transformers required through one -t
$ textr foo.md -t typographic-single-spaces,typographic-quotes
# load through stdin, iso-locale equals ru, transformers using --transforms
$ cat foo.md | textr -l ru --transforms=typographic-single-spaces
# load through stdin, write result into file
$ cat foo.md | textr -o bar.md

$ cat foo.md
Hello, "world"...
Yet "another" string
Yet... one…
$ textr foo.md -t typographic-single-spaces,typographic-quotes,typographic-ellipses
Hello, “world”…
Yet “another” string
