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

- Contributed maps
-
- This distribution contains four contributed encodings from MURATA Makoto
- <murata@apsdc.ksp.fujixerox.co.jp> that are variations on the encoding
- commonly called Shift_JIS:
-
- x-sjis-cp932.enc
- x-sjis-jdk117.enc
- x-sjis-jisx0221.enc
- x-sjis-unicode.enc (This is the same encoding as the shift_jis.enc that
- was distributed with this module in version 2.17)
-
- Please read his message (Japanese_Encodings.msg) about why these are here
- and why I've removed the shift_jis.enc encoding.
-
- We also have two contributed encodings that are variations of the EUC-JP
- encoding from Yoshida Masato <yoshidam@inse.co.jp>:
-
- x-euc-jp-jisx0221.enc
- x-euc-jp-unicode.enc
-
- The comments that MURATA Makoto made in his message apply to these
- encodings too.
-
- KangChan Lee <dolphin@comeng.chungnam.ac.kr> supplied the euc-kr encoding.
