NAME

Filter::Encoding - Write your script in any encoding

VERSION

Version 0.01

SYNOPSIS

  use Filter::Encoding 'MacRoman';
  # Code that follows can be written in MacRoman encoding.

DESCRIPTION

This module allows your code to be written in any ASCII-based encoding. Just pass the name of the encoding as an argument to use Filter::Encoding. The source code will be decoded and treated as though it had been written in UTF-8 with use utf8 in effect. That's all this module does.

It is intended as a simpler, saner replacement for encoding.pm, one that does not change the up- and downgrading of strings or touch your file handles.

DIAGNOSTICS

Too many arguments to Filter::Encoding->import()

use Filter::Encoding (which implies ->import) only allows one argument.

Filter::Encoding: Unknown encoding '%s'

The encoding must be one recognized by the Encode module.

PREREQUISITES

perl 5.8.0 or later
