This is the README file for Encode::HanConvert, two encoding formats to facilitate mappings between traditional and simplified Chinese characters. * Installation Encode::HanConvert uses the standard perl module install process: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install enc2xs -C # optional; updates Encode.pm's on-demand loading DB You will need perl 5.7.3 or better, as well as Encode 1.41 or better for Unicode-related functions. Otherwise, Encode::HanConvert::Perl is used automatically, which provides perl-based implementations to big5_to_gb() and gb_to_big5(). Regardless of the implementation, two command-line utilities ('b2g.pl' and 'g2b.pl') are installed for simple conversion between GBK and Big5 encodings. For this module's typical usage and examples, please consult its POD documentation. * Copyright Copyright 2002-2009 by Audrey Tang . Copyright 2006 by Kuang-che Wu . All rights reserved.
