  21  =head1 SYNOPSIS
  22  
  23      use Encode qw/encode decode/; 
  24      $big5 = encode("big5", $utf8); # loads Encode::TW implicitly
  25      $utf8 = decode("big5", $big5); # ditto

  27  =head1 DESCRIPTION
  28  
  29  This module implements tradition Chinese charset encodings as used
  30  in Taiwan and Hong Kong.
  31  Encodings supported are as follows.

  48  =head1 NOTES
  49  
  50  Due to size concerns, C<EUC-TW> (Extended Unix Character), C<CCCII>
  51  (Chinese Character Code for Information Interchange), C<BIG5PLUS>
  52  (CMEX's Big5+) and C<BIG5EXT> (CMEX's Big5e) are distributed separately
  53  on CPAN, under the name L<Encode::HanExtra>. That module also contains
  54  extra China-based encodings.
  55  
  56  =head1 BUGS
  57  
  58  Since the original C<big5> encoding (1984) is not supported anywhere
  59  (glibc and DOS-based systems uses C<big5> to mean C<big5-eten>; Microsoft
  60  uses C<big5> to mean C<cp950>), a conscious decision was made to alias
  61  C<big5> to C<big5-eten>, which is the de facto superset of the original
  62  big5.
  63  
  64  The C<CNS11643> encoding files are not complete. For common C<CNS11643>
  65  manipulation, please use C<EUC-TW> in L<Encode::HanExtra>, which contains
  66  planes 1-7.
  67  
  68  The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even
  69  though this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.  See
  70  
  71  L<http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/unicode-symbols.html.en>
  72  
  73  to find out why it is implemented that way.
