Locale:...:IBM273(3)
💖 Locale::RecodeData::IBM273(3) — the manual page, but make it make sense
ok so this is Locale::RecodeData::IBM273(3), straight out of the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, and bestie, it's a whole thing. Sit down, grab a strawberry 🍓, and let's get into it.
✨ NAME ✨
Locale::RecodeData::IBM273 — literally just conversion routines for IBM273. that's the vibe. that's the whole assignment. 💅
🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋
This module is internal to libintl. Do not use directly!ok so read that again, because it matters: this module is internal to libintl, and it says do not use directly, like, with an exclamation point and everything. so 😭 bestie please do not come for me when you call it straight up and things get weird. it's giving backstage pass, not front-door energy. 🙈
🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸
so what is it? this module is generated — not hand-written, generated, ok — and it contains the conversion tables and routines for IBM273. that's it. that's the tea. 🎀
it's a little machine that knows how to translate IBM273 characters back and forth, and it does not need you to hold its hand. it's a main character that already knows its lines. 👑
💀 COMMENTS 💀
the following comments have been extracted from the original charmap, and I'm putting them here verbatim because you do not mess with source data:
version: 1.0
source: IBM NLS RM Vol2 SE09-8002-01, March 1990
alias CP273so: version 1.0, the source is IBM NLS RM Vol2 SE09-8002-01, March 1990, and there's an alias CP273. iconic provenance ngl. ✨
🚨 PLS READ THIS ONE: please note that aliases listed above are not necessarily valid! like, the alias is sitting right there looking all cute, and it might not even be legit. do not trust it blindly, fr fr. 🙅♀️
🌈 CHARACTER TABLE 🌈
ok and now the actual table section, and there is one (1) housekeeping note you need before you scroll, so pay attention:
- the following table is sorted in the same order as the original charmap — no re-sorting, no alphabetizing, we respect the source 🫶
- all character codes are in hexadecimal — so if a code looks like letters, it's still a number, don't panic 🔥
- please read
'ISO-10646'as'ISO-10646-UCS4'— yes, that's the whole instruction, and yes, they mean it ⭐
and that's where part one wraps on the text, because the table itself is coming up next and it is long. stay with me, bestie, we're only getting started 🧚💜
okay bestie, the table just keeps going — same three columns, same chaotic energy: the Local byte, the ISO-10646 code point, and the name. don't retype any of this by hand, copy it fr fr 💅
