Locale:...:IBM905(3)
🎀 NAME 🎀
Locale::RecodeData::IBM905 — ok so this one's about conversion routines for IBM905, and yes bestie the manual name is IBM905(3), we're in section 3 territory 💅
✨ SYNOPSIS ✨
This module is internal to libintl. Do not use directly!Read that again, bestie. It's giving hands off, this is not for you energy 😭 It's internal to libintl, so like… do not use it directly. Periodt.
🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋
So this module is generated — not hand-written, it's a whole machine-made situation — and what it's got inside is the conversion tables and routines for IBM905. That's the whole vibe. Tables + routines, generated, for IBM905. Slay 💖
🌸 COMMENTS 🌸
The following comments have been extracted from the original charmap, and honestly? Little historical artifacts, we love to see them:
version: 1.0
source: IBM 3174 Character Set Ref, GA27-3831-02, March 1990
alias CP905
alias EBCDIC-CP-TR⚠️ Okay important little note before you go anywhere with those: the aliases listed above are not necessarily valid! Like, they're in the charmap, but that does not mean you should trust them, iykyk 🙈
👑 CHARACTER TABLE 👑
The following table is sorted in the same order as the original charmap — same order, no reshuffling, we respect the source. All character codes are in hexadecimal, so keep that in mind when you're reading it.
Also, tiny translation note: please read ISO-10646 as ISO-10646-UCS4. Like, when you see the former, think the latter ✨ That's the reading comprehension check and you passed it, bestie 🫶
Okay so here's where it gets actually juicy — the character table itself. Three columns, bestie: Local (the byte you'd see in this encoding), ISO-10646 (the universal code point it maps to), and Description (what it actually is). Read it like a Rosetta Stone. 💅
The 00–3F block: control-character chaos era 🎛️
Look at this mess and tell me it isn't iconic. 04 is STRING TERMINATOR (ST) mapping to 0000009C, but 05 is a plain old CHARACTER TABULATION (HT) at 00000009. And 07?? That's DELETE (DEL) living at 0000007F while 16 is BACKSPACE (BS) up at 00000008. The vibes are ✨ scrambled ✨ and that's just how IBM905 rolls.

The 40–7F block: bestie, we have LETTERS 🎀
This is where it starts feeling like an actual alphabet instead of a robot screaming. 40 kicks off with plain SPACE at 00000020, and then boom — 42 is LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH CIRCUMFLEX (000000E2), 43 is LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS (000000E4), 44 is LATIN SMALL LETTER A WITH GRAVE (000000E0)… the accented vowels ate and left no crumbs. 🍓
Heads up though: peep the gaps.41,46,66, and70just… aren't in the table. Not me noticing empty seats at the function 👀 — I'm just reading what's here, bestie.

The 80–BF block: lowercase era, we love to see it 🦋
80 opens with BREVE at 000002D8 and then 81 through 89 is just… a b c d e f g h i in a row like a little parade. 81 LATIN SMALL LETTER A, 82 LATIN SMALL LETTER B, all the way down. The way that the alphabet just lines up here — screaming, crying, throwing up (affectionately). 😭💖

The C0–EB block: capital letters took over the party 👑
C1 through C9 is literally LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A through LATIN CAPITAL LETTER I — 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49. Then CA is SOFT HYPHEN (000000AD) because even the capitals need a lil break. 🫶 And E2–E9 gives us S, T, U, V, W, X, Y, Z — the whole squad assembled, no notes.
