VERSION

0.001

SYNOPSIS

    use Lingua::MY::Zawgyi2Unicode;

    # /.../

    # check if the $string is Burmese (fast operation)
    # and if so, also check if the $string is in
    # zawgyi encoding.

    if (isBurmese($string) and isZawgyi($string)) {
        $string = convert($string);
    }

DESCRIPTION

A Perl implementation to convert Burmese text in Zawgyi to Unicode (UTF-8). Inspiration, algortithms, and bits of code has been cherry picketed from the MUA-Web-Unicode-Converter project and Rabbit-Converter project.

FUNCTIONS

isBurmese

Check if a string is Burmese text, either Zawgyi or Unicode. Considered a quick operation.

isZawgui

Check if a string is Zawgyi. This function is slower than isBurmese, so it makes sense to check with isBurmese prior to call this.

convert

This function convert the supplied string to Unicode and return the result. Do not call this function with a (Burmese) Unicode string, if uncertain of the encoding, check with the above is-functions.
