Locale:...CYRILLIC(3)
π Locale::RecodeData::ECMA_CYRILLIC(3) β the manual page, but make it make sense
okay so bestie, welcome to Locale::RecodeData::ECMA_CYRILLIC(3) β¨ this is the perl docs situation, and yes it's one of those modules β the internal kind. buckle up, it's short but it's iconic π
β¨ NAME β¨
Locale::RecodeData::ECMA_CYRILLIC β literally just conversion routines for ECMA_CYRILLIC, that's the whole gig π
πΈ SYNOPSIS πΈ
real talk: this module is internal to libintl. like, it lives behind the scenes. so pleaseeee do not use it directly! π
No cap β the docs say "Do not use directly!" and they mean it, bestie. this is backstage-only energy.
π¦ DESCRIPTION π¦
so this module is generated (not hand-written, she was built) and she contains the conversion tables and routines for ECMA-CYRILLIC π₯ that's it, that's the vibe.
π COMMENTS π
the following comments got extracted from the original charmap, straight up lifted, no edits:
version: 1.0
source: ECMA registry
alias ISO-IR-111and a lil heads-up before you get too excited: please note that the aliases listed above are not necessarily valid! π like, don't @ me, they're just what the charmap said. vibe check accordingly.
π CHARACTER TABLE π
okay so the table (coming at you in the next parts, stay tuned π«Ά) is sorted in the exact same order as the original charmap β no re-sorting, no editorialising, we respect the source.
also, all character codes are in hexadecimal, periodt. π’
and one thing that trips people up: when you see 'ISO-10646', please read it as 'ISO-10646-UCS4' β that's the actual meaning, iykyk π
β¨ to be continued, bestieβ¦ β¨
Okay so real talk β the rest of this table is giving "ancient terminal rituals" and honestly? Iconic. π
Local byte on the left, ISO-10646 code point in the middle, the actual name on the right. Read it like a roster: a couple of these are your besties, a couple have villain energy (BELL I'm looking at you π), and every single one is listed. No cap, no skipping. π
