💖 Encode:...213::CCS 💖 — the JIS X 0213 coded character sets era

okay bestie so this page is from Encode::...213::CCS(3), and it's part of the User Contributed Perl Documentation situation. it's giving "let me introduce you to the coded character sets" and honestly? iconic. let's go 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

Encode::JISX0213::CCS — JIS X 0213 coded character sets. that's it, that's the whole vibe check 💅

🌸 ABSTRACT 🌸

so this module is out here providing the following coded character sets, no cap:

 reg# Name                    Description
 ----------------------------------------------------------------
  87  jis-x-0208              JIS X 0208-1983, 2nd rev. of JIS X 0208
 168      ditto               JIS X 0208-1990, 3rd rev. of JIS X 0208
      jis-x-0208-ascii
      jis-x-0208-jis
 233  jis-x-0213-plane1       JIS X 0213:2004 level 3 (plane 1)
      jis-x-0213-plane1-ascii
      jis-x-0213-plane1-jis
 228  jis-x-0213-plane1-2000  JIS X 0213:2000 level 3 (plane 1)
      jis-x-0213-plane1-2000-ascii
      jis-x-0213-plane1-2000-jis
 229  jis-x-0213-plane2       JIS X 0213:2000/2004 level 4 (plane 2)

  -   jis-x-0208-0213         Common set of JIS X 0208 and JIS X 0213,
      jis-x-0208-0213-ascii   according to JIS X 0213:2004 Annex 2
      jis-x-0208-0213-jis
 ----------------------------------------------------------------

look at all those little guys. reg# 87, 168, 233, 228, 229, and our beloved -. so many names, so many dashes, we love to see it 🦋

💜 DESCRIPTION 💜

wanna know how to actually use this module in detail? say less, bestie — go read Encode and Encode::ISO2022. that's the real tea. 🍓

🧚 Note on Variants 🧚

those ones with the -ascii and -jis suffixes hanging off the end? they're using alternative names for the characters. -ascii is compatible to ISO/IEC 646 IRV (which is basically ASCII, iykyk), and -jis is compatible to the JIS X 0201 Latin set. two different flavors, same energy ✨

💀 Compatibility 💀

okay this part matters, so listen up:

  • the jis-x-0208* crew include a fallback mapping for HORIZONTAL BAR. and here's the thing — that mapping is not a normative mapping defined by JIS X 0208. it got added purely for compatibility with jis0208-raw encoding in the Encode::JP core module. so it's a little extra, a little bonus, a little "we did this for the homies" moment.
  • BUT. jis-x-0208-0213* no longer include this mapping. nope. gone. not invited to the function anymore. 😭
not me pointing out that these two behave differently — because they DO, and you need to know that fr fr.
