💅 Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::Verbatim

okay bestie, buckle up, because this page is literally the interpreter of the Verbatim variant of the ArabTeX notation — that's the whole vibe, that's the name, we move 💖

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

real talk, the usage is giving main character energy:

use Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::Verbatim;  # imports just like 'use Encode' would, plus extended options

while ($line = <>) {                    # maps the ArabTeX notation for Arabic into the Arabic script

    print encode 'utf8', decode 'arabtex-verb', $line;      # 'ArabTeX-Verbatim' alias 'ArabTeX-Verb'
}

# ArabTeX language-dependent transliteration <--> ArabTeX verbatim transliteration

$string = decode 'ArabTeX-Verbatim', $octets;
$octets = encode 'ArabTeX-Verbatim', $string;

so basically: use it like you'd use Encode (but with extra extended options, slay), loop over your lines, and decode / encode your little heart out 🎀

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so first things first: ArabTeX is an excellent extension to TeX/LaTeX, built specifically for typesetting the right-to-left scripts of the Orient 🧚 it comes with these super intuitive and comprehensible lower ASCII transliterations, and the way that its expressive power is even better than that of the scripts themselves?? iconic. no cap.

Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::Verbatim implements the rules you need for a proper interpretation of the ArabTeX verbatim notation, which gets discussed in the ArabTeX User Manual 📖 the actual conversion is done by Encode::Mapper, and the user interface is built on top of the Encode::Encoding module. teamwork, fr fr 💜

relevant guidance lives in Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX, and yes, this module inherits from it 🫶 but heads up: the transformation rules are, however, quite different ;) — not me warning you in advance, but consider yourself warned 😭

also this work is presented in its development version! so like, she's still growing, be gentle 🌱
