=head1 SYNOPSIS
- use Encode::CN;
- $big5 = encode("big5", $utf8);
- $utf8 = encode("big5", $big5);
+ use Encode qw/encode decode/;
+ $big5 = encode("big5", $utf8); # loads Encode::TW implicitly
+ $utf8 = decode("big5", $big5); # ditto
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This module implements Taiwan-based Chinese charset encodings.
Encodings supported are as follows.
- big5 The original Big5 encoding
- big5-hkscs Big5 plus Cantonese characters in Hong Kong
- cp950 Code Page 950 (Big5 + Microsoft vendor mappings)
-

=head1 NOTES
(CMEX's Big5+) are distributed separately on CPAN, under the name
L<Encode::HanExtra>. That module also contains extra China-based encodings.
-This module will automatically load L<Encode::HanExtra> if you have it on
-your machine.

=head1 BUGS
The C<CNS11643> encoding files are not complete (only the first two planes,
ASCII part (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though it
conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium. See
-F<http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/unicode-symbols.html.en>
+L<http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/unicode-symbols.html.en>
to find why it is implemented that way.
