✨ Locale::RecodeData::IBM864 ✨
okay so this is the IBM864(3) page from the User Contributed Perl Documentation — yes, that whole mouthful is the manual name, we're folding it in right here at the top so nobody has to read it as a header line 💅
🌸 NAME 🌸
Locale::RecodeData::IBM864 — literally just conversion routines for IBM864, bestie. that's the whole vibe 🦋
🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀
This module is internal to libintl. Do not use directly!okay so real talk — this one's internal to libintl. like, do not use it directly. it's giving backstage-access-only, no cap 🙈
💖 DESCRIPTION 💖
so this module is generated (not hand-written, bestie, it's machine-made ✨) and it contains the conversion tables and routines for IBM864. that's it, that's the job. slay.
🧚 COMMENTS 🧚
these comments got extracted from the original charmap, iykyk:
automatically generated from the charDB
alias CP864so CP864 is an alias — cute! — but heads up, queen:
⚠️ the aliases listed above are not necessarily valid! like, don't just assume. please note it. the manpage said please note it and so am i 😭
👑 CHARACTER TABLE 👑
the following table is sorted in the same order as the original charmap — no reshuffling, no remixing, we keep it exactly as it came 🌈
all character codes are in hexadecimal, periodt. and when you see 'ISO-10646' up in there, read it as 'ISO-10646-UCS4' — that's the actual name, fr fr ⭐
more coming in the next part, bestie — don't go anywhere 🫶
...and it just keeps going, bestie. Same three columns the whole way down: the Local byte, the ISO-10646 code point, and the Description. Buckle up 🎀
the first stretch — classic ASCII vibes 👑

and nestled in there at DB–DE you've got your little math break: BROKEN BAR, NOT SIGN, DIVISION SIGN, MULTIPLICATION SIGN. then E0 is ARABIC TATWEEL doing its thing, and the range keeps rolling from E1 onward through all those INITIAL FORMs 💜
and we're still not done — the table literally keeps going from right where EE leaves off 👀
okay so the table keeps going, and yes bestie we're finishing it — every last row, no skipping, no "etc." energy 💅
