All +mappings happen via 2 byte UTF16 encodings, not via 1 byte UTF8 encoding. +To transform these use Unicode::String. + +This module can't deal directly with utf8. Use Unicode::String to convert +utf8 to utf16 and vice versa. + +Character mapping is according to the data of binary mapfiles in +Unicode::Map hierarchy. Binary mapfiles can also be created with this module, +enabling you to install own specific character sets. |
