Summary : Plain Ascii Transliterations of Unicode Text
|
Description :
It often happens that you have non-Roman text data in Unicode, but you can\'t display it-- usually because you\'re trying to show it to a user via an application that doesn\'t support Unicode, or because the fonts you need aren\'t accessible. You could represent the Unicode characters as \"???????\" or \"\\15BA\\15A0\\1610...\", but that\'s nearly useless to the user who actually wants to read what the text says.
What Text::Unidecode provides is a function, \'unidecode(...)\' that takes Unicode data and tries to represent it in US-ASCII characters (i.e., the universally displayable characters between 0x00 and 0x7F). The representation is almost always an attempt at _transliteration_-- i.e., conveying, in Roman letters, the pronunciation expressed by the text in some other writing system. (See the example in the synopsis.)
NOTE:
To make sure your perldoc/Pod viewing setup for viewing this page is working: The six-letter word \"r�sum�\" should look like \"resume\" with an \"/\" accent on each \"e\".
For further tests, and help if that doesn\'t work, see below, A POD ENCODING TEST.
