Unicode::UTF8simple - Conversions to/from UTF8 from/to charactersets
This utf-8 converter is written in plain perl and works with hopefully any perl 5 version. It was mainly written because more recent modules such as Encode do not work under older Perl 5.0 installations.
Supported encodings:
euc-kr
gb2312
iso-8859-1
iso-8859-2
iso-8859-9
koi8-r
utf-8
windows-1256
See the file test.pl for examples on how to use the module.
If you want to install UTF8simple
below /usr/local ( /usr/local/lib/5.6.0/i386-linux etc...)
then run
perl Makefile.PL PREFIX=/usr/local
make
make test
make install
To install only the perl module in a different location (but e.g. the man pages in the standard location) use:
perl Makefile.PL LIB=/you/new/libpath
make test
make install
