Encode-JP-Mobile

NAME

Encode::JP::Mobile - Shift_JIS variants of Japanese Mobile phones

SYNOPSIS

use Encode::JP::Mobile;

      my $char   = "\x82\xb1\xf9\x5d\xf8\xa0\x82\xb1";
      my $string = decode("shift_jis-imode", $char);

DESCRIPTION

Encode::JP::Mobile is an Encode module to support Shift_JIS variants used in Japaese mobile phone browsers.

This module is EXPERIMENTAL. That means API and implementations will sometimge be backward incompatible.

ENCODINGS

This module currently supports the following encodings.

shift_jis-imode

for DoCoMo pictograms. "shift_jis-docomo" is alias.

shift_jis-vodafone

        for Vodafone pictograms. Since it uses escape sequence, decoding
        algorithm is not based on ucm file.

shift_jis-kddi

for KDDI/AU pictograms. "shift_jis-ezweb" is alias.

shift_jis-airedge

for AirEDGE pictograms. "shift_jis-airh" is alias.

NOTES

ucm files are based on "cp932.ucm", not "shiftjis.ucm", since it looks more appropriate for possible use cases. I'm open for any suggesitions on this matter.
Pictogram characters are defined to be round-trip safe. However, they use Unicode Private Area for such characters, that means you'll have interoperability issues, which this module doesn't try to solve.
