| 27 | |
| 28 | This module implements Taiwan-based Chinese charset encodings. |
| 29 | Encodings supported are as follows. |

| 44 | =head1 NOTES |
| 45 | |
| 85982a32 |
46 | Due to size concerns, C<EUC-TW> (Extended Unix Character), C<CCCII> |
| b0b300a3 |
47 | (Chinese Character Code for Information Interchange), C<BIG5PLUS> |
| 48 | (CMEX's Big5+) and C<BIG5EXT> (CMEX's Big5e) are distributed separately |
| 49 | on CPAN, under the name L<Encode::HanExtra>. That module also contains |
| 50 | extra China-based encodings. |
| b2729934 |
51 | |
| 52 | =head1 BUGS |
| 53 | |
| b0b300a3 |
54 | Since the original C<big5> encoding (1984) is not supported anywhere |
| 55 | (glibc and DOS-based systems uses C<big5> to mean C<big5-eten>; Microsoft |
| 56 | uses C<big5> to mean C<cp950>), a concious decision was made to alias |
| 57 | C<big5> to C<big5-eten>, which is the de facto superset of the original |
| 58 | big5. |
| 59 | |
| 85982a32 |
60 | The C<CNS11643> encoding files are not complete. For common C<CNS11643> |
| b2729934 |
61 | manipulation, please use C<EUC-TW> in L<Encode::HanExtra>, which contains |
| 62 | plane 1-7. |
| 63 | |
| 64 | ASCII part (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though it |
| 65 | conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium. See |

67 | L<http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/unicode-symbols.html.en> |
| b2729934 |
68 | |
| 69 | to find why it is implemented that way. |
