Description: Perl module for conversing between any character sets and UTF8
This module provides an adapter layer between core routines for
converting to and from UTF8 and other encodings. In essence, a way
to give multiple existing Unicode modules a single common interface
so you don't have to know the underlying implementations to do
simple UTF8 to-from other character set encoding conversions. As
such, it wraps the Unicode::String, Unicode::Map8, Unicode::Map and
Jcode modules in a standardized and simple API.
.
This also provides general character set conversion operation based
on UTF8 - it is possible to convert between any two compatible and
supported character sets via a simple two step chaining of
conversions.
.
As with most things Perlish - if you give it a few big chunks of text
to chew on instead of lots of small ones it will handle many more
characters per second.
.
By design, it can be easily extended to encompass any new charset
encoding conversion modules that arrive on the scene.
