NAME

       IM::EncDec - MIME header encoder/decoder

SYNOPSIS

	use IM::EncDec;

	$mime_header_encoded_string =
	    mime_encode_string(string, iso7bit, iso8bit);
	$string =
	   mime_decode_string(mime_header_encoded_string);

	$B_encoded_string = b_encode_string(string);
	$string = b_decode_string(B_encoded_string);

	$Q_encoded_string = q_encode_string(string);
	$string = q_decode_string(Q_encoded_string);

DESCRIPTION

       The IM::EncDec module is encoder/decoder for MIME header.

       This modules is provided by IM (Internet Message).

		(Kazuhiko Yamamoto)

	s/
[	 ]+//g;
	print mime_decode_string($_), "
";
	    => "JAPANESE (Kazuhiko Yamamoto)"

NAME

       Encode::JP - Japanese Encodings

SYNOPSIS

	   use Encode qw/encode decode/;
	   $euc_jp = encode("euc-jp", $utf8);	# loads Encode::JP implicitly
	   $utf8   = decode("euc-jp", $euc_jp); # ditto

ABSTRACT

       This module implements Japanese charset encodings.  Encodings supported are as follows.

	 Canonical   Alias	       Description
	 --------------------------------------------------------------------
	 euc-jp      /euc.*jp$/i     EUC (Extended Unix Character)
		     /jp.*euc/i
		 /ujis$/i
	 shiftjis    /shift.*jis$/i  Shift JIS (aka MS Kanji)
		 /sjis$/i
	 7bit-jis    /jis$/i	       7bit JIS
	 iso-2022-jp		       ISO-2022-JP		    [RFC1468]
		       = 7bit JIS with all Halfwidth Kana
			 converted to Fullwidth
	 iso-2022-jp-1		       ISO-2022-JP-1		    [RFC2237]
				       = ISO-2022-JP with JIS X 0212-1990
			 support.  See below
	 MacJapanese		       Shift JIS + Apple vendor mappings
	 cp932	     /windows-31j$/i Code Page 932
				       = Shift JIS + MS/IBM vendor mappings
	 jis0201-raw		       JIS0201, raw format
	 jis0208-raw		       JIS0201, raw format
	 jis0212-raw		       JIS0201, raw format
	 --------------------------------------------------------------------

DESCRIPTION

       To find out how to use this module in detail, see Encode.

Note on ISO-2022-JP(-1)?
       ISO-2022-JP-1 (RFC2237) is a superset of ISO-2022-JP (RFC1468) which adds support for JIS X 0212-1990.  That means you can use the same
       code to decode to utf8 but not vice versa.

	 $utf8 = decode('iso-2022-jp-1', $stream);

       and

	 $utf8 = decode('iso-2022-jp',	 $stream);

       yield the same result but

	 $with_0212 = encode('iso-2022-jp-1', $utf8);

       is now different from

	 $without_0212 = encode('iso-2022-jp', $utf8 );

       In the latter case, characters that map to 0212 are first converted to U+3013 (0xA2AE in EUC-JP; a white square also known as 'Tofu' or
       'geta mark') then fed to the decoding engine.  U+FFFD is not used, in order to preserve text layout as much as possible.

BUGS

       The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.
