1 | This directory contains binary encoding maps for some selected encodings. |
2 | If they are placed in a directoy listed in @XML::Parser::Expat::Encoding_Path, | |
3 | then they are automaticly loaded by the XML::Parser::Expat::load_encoding | |
4 | function as needed. Otherwise you may load what you need directly by | |
5 | explicity calling this function. | |
6 | ||
7 | These maps were generated by a perl script that comes with the module | |
8 | XML::Encoding, compile_encoding, from XML formatted encoding maps that | |
9 | are distributed with that module. These XML encoding maps were generated | |
10 | in turn with a different script, domap, from mapping information contained | |
11 | on the Unicode version 2.0 CD-ROM. This CD-ROM comes with the Unicode | |
12 | Standard reference manual and can be ordered from the Unicode Consortium | |
13 | at http://www.unicode.org. The identical information is available on the | |
14 | internet at ftp://ftp.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS. | |
15 | ||
16 | See the encoding.h header in the Expat sub-directory for a description of | |
17 | the structure of these files. | |

24 | Contributed maps | |
25 | ||
26 | This distribution contains four contributed encodings from MURATA Makoto | |
27 | <murata@apsdc.ksp.fujixerox.co.jp> that are variations on the encoding | |
28 | commonly called Shift_JIS: | |
29 | ||
30 | x-sjis-cp932.enc | |
31 | x-sjis-jdk117.enc | |
32 | x-sjis-jisx0221.enc | |
33 | x-sjis-unicode.enc (This is the same encoding as the shift_jis.enc that | |
34 | was distributed with this module in version 2.17) | |
35 | ||
36 | Please read his message (Japanese_Encodings.msg) about why these are here | |
37 | and why I've removed the shift_jis.enc encoding. | |
38 | ||
39 | We also have two contributed encodings that are variations of the EUC-JP | |
40 | encoding from Yoshida Masato <yoshidam@inse.co.jp>: | |
41 | ||
42 | x-euc-jp-jisx0221.enc | |
43 | x-euc-jp-unicode.enc | |
44 | ||
45 | The comments that MURATA Makoto made in his message apply to these | |
46 | encodings too. | |
47 | ||
48 | KangChan Lee <dolphin@comeng.chungnam.ac.kr> supplied the euc-kr encoding. | |
