This module is about the string part of plain Perl scalars. A scalar has a
|
|
string value, which is notionally a sequence of Unicode codepoints, but may be
|
|
internally encoded in either ISO-8859-1 or UTF-8. In places, and more so in
|
|
older versions of Perl, the internal encoding shows through. To fully understand
|
|
Perl strings it is necessary to understand these implementation details.
|
|
|
|
This module provides functions to classify a string by encoding and to encode a
|
|
string in a desired way.
|
|
|
|
This module is implemented in XS, with a pure Perl backup version for systems
|
|
that can't handle XS.
