Locale:...:IBM277(3)
🎀 Locale::RecodeData::IBM277 🎀
okay so bestie, you're looking at Locale::RecodeData::IBM277(3) — that's the User Contributed Perl Documentation section, iykyk. And yes, the full manual name is literally Locale::RecodeData::IBM277, we're just folding it in up here at the top so it doesn't get lonely. 🫶
✨ NAME ✨
Locale::RecodeData::IBM277 — conversion routines for IBM277 💅
🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸
okay so read this part carefully because it's giving hands off:
This module is internal to libintl. Do not use directly! 🚫
Like, fr fr, it's not for you. It's not for me. It's internal. Respect the boundary 🫶
💖 DESCRIPTION 💖
So what is this thing? It's a module that gets generated (not hand-written, bestie, the machine made it), and it contains the conversion tables and routines for IBM277. That's it. That's the whole job. It converts. It tables. It slays. ✨
🧚 COMMENTS 🧚
The following comments have been extracted from the original charmap — so these are the receipts, straight from the source, no notes:
version: 1.0
source: IBM NLS RM Vol2 SE09-8002-01, March 1990
alias EBCDIC-CP-DK
alias EBCDIC-CP-NO⚠️ okay important: Please note that aliases listed above are not necessarily valid! Like, don't just assume they work, bestie. They're listed, that's all. A vibe check is required before you trust them 🙈
🦋 CHARACTER TABLE 🦋
The following table is sorted in the same order as the original charmap — same order, no reshuffling, we're not that kind of module 💅
All character codes are in hexadecimal. All of them. Every single one 🔥
And please, when you see ISO-10646 anywhere in here, read it as ISO-10646-UCS4. Not a drill, just a naming thing. 👑
okay so that's where this part wraps — the table itself is coming up, and there's more where this came from, so stay tuned bestie 🎀
okay bestie, real talk: we are literally in the middle of the table right now 💅 — the Local | ISO-10646 | Description grid, three columns, one row at a time. Part 1 got us set up, and now we're just gonna walk it down together. Nothing scary. Just vibes and hex. 🦋
Same three columns the whole way: the local byte code on the left, the ISO-10646 value in the middle, the name on the right. Let's go. ✨
🎀 the bottom of the table — 00 to 1F 🎀
So these are the cute little low ones, and ngl the local order is not the order you'd expect — the way <pink>04isSTRING TERMINATOR (ST)while07</pink> is straight up DELETE (DEL)? it's giving chaos, but it's the map, so we respect it. 💀

Bestie heads up: we stop at local E7 here, but the table is not done — it keeps rolling past this. Don't screenshot and dip yet, the next chunk picks it right back up. 💖
— and that's where we're pausing, mid-grid, with E7 sitting there like LATIN CAPITAL LETTER X waiting for its friends. 🌸 Next rows are still loading, iykyk. ✨
