Let's start with a bit of history: jperl 4.019+1.3 introduced UTF-2 support. You could apply chop() and regexps even to complex CJK characters.
JPerl in CPAN Perl Ports (Binary Distributions)
said before,
As of Perl 5.8.0 it is suggested that instead of JPerl (which is based on a quite old release of Perl) you should just use Perl 5.8.0, since it can do all that JPerl did, and more.
But was it really so?
In this country, UTF-2 is widely used on mainframe I/O, the personal computer, and the cellular phone. This software treats UTF-2 directly, but doesn't treat Latin-1. Therefor there is not UTF8 flag.
A difficult solution makes the problem more difficult. Shall we escape from the encode problem?
JPerl is very useful software. -- Oops, note, this "JPerl" means Japanized or Japanese Perl, so is unrelated to Java and JVM. Therefore, I named this software better, fitter UTF2.
Now, the last version of JPerl is 5.005_04 and is not maintained now.
Japanization modifier WATANABE Hirofumi said,
"Because WATANABE am tired I give over maintaing JPerl."
at Slide #15: "The future of JPerl" of
ftp://ftp.oreilly.co.jp/pcjp98/watanabe/jperlconf.ppt
in The Perl Confernce Japan 1998.
When I heard it, I thought that someone excluding me would maintain JPerl. And I slept every night hanging a sock. Night and day, I kept having hope. After 10 years, I noticed that white beard exists in the sock :-)
This software is a source code filter to escape Perl script encoded by UTF-2 given from STDIN or command line parameter. The character code is never converted by escaping the script. Neither the value of the character nor the length of the character string change even if it escapes.
What's this software good for ...
Upper Compatibility like Perl4 to Perl5
Maximum Portability like jcode.pl
Handles Raw UTF-2, No UTF8 flag like JPerl
Remains One Interpreter like Encode module
Code Set Independent like Ruby
There's more than one way to do it like Perl itself
Let's make yet another future by JPerl's future.

A Perl Virtual Machine (PVM) enables a set of computer software programs and data structures to use a virtual machine model for the execution of other computer programs and scripts. The model used by a PVM accepts a form of computer intermediate language commonly referred to as Perl byteorientedcode. This language conceptually represents the instruction set of a byte-oriented, capability architecture.
I discovered this mail again recently.

save as: SJIS.pm

I am glad that I could confirm my idea is not so wrong.

This software adds the function by 'Escaping' it always, and nothing of the past is broken. Therefore, 'Possible job' never becomes 'Impossible job'. This approach is effective in the field where the retreat is never permitted. Modern Perl/perl can not always solve the problem. Often, it means an incompatible upgrade part to traditional Perl should be rewound.
You need write 'use UTF2;' in your script.

Insert chr(0x5c) before @ [ \ ] ^ ` { | and } in multiple octet of
string in single quote ('', q{}, <<'END' and qw{})
string in double quote ("", qq{}, <<END, <<"END", ``, qx{} and <<`END`)
regexp in single quote (m'', s''', split(''), split(m'') and qr'')
regexp in double quote (//, m//, ??, s///, split(//), split(m//) and qr//)

Order Of Character
$ord = UTF2::ord($string); This function returns the numeric value ASCII or UTF-2 of the first character of $string, not Unicode. The return value is always unsigned. If you import ord "use UTF2 qw(ord);", ord of your script will be rewritten in UTF2::ord. UTF2::ord is not compatible with ord of JPerl.
Reverse List Or String
@reverse = UTF2::reverse(@list); $reverse = UTF2::reverse(@list); In list context, this function returns a list value consisting of the elements of @list in the opposite order. The function can be used to create descending sequences: for (UTF2::reverse(1 .. 10)) { ... } Because of the way hashes flatten into lists when passed as a @list, reverse can also be used to invert a hash, presuming the values are unique: %barfoo = UTF2::reverse(%foobar); In scalar context, the function concatenates all the elements of LIST and then returns the reverse of that resulting string, character by character. If you import reverse "use UTF2 qw(reverse);", reverse of your script will be rewritten in UTF2::reverse. UTF2::reverse is not compatible with reverse of JPerl.
Length By UTF-2 Character
$length = UTF2::length($string); $length = UTF2::length(); This function returns the length in characters of the scalar value $string. If $string is omitted, it returns the UTF2::length of $_. Do not try to use length to find the size of an array or hash. Use scalar @array for the size of an array, and scalar keys %hash for the number of key/value pairs in a hash. (The scalar is typically omitted when redundant.) To find the length of a string in bytes rather than characters, say simply: $bytes = length($string);
Substr By UTF-2 Character
$substr = UTF2::substr($string,$offset,$length,$replacement); $substr = UTF2::substr($string,$offset,$length); $substr = UTF2::substr($string,$offset); This function extracts a substring out of the string given by $string and returns it. The substring is extracted starting at $offset characters from the front of the string. If $offset is negative, the substring starts that far from the end of the string instead. If $length is omitted, everything to the end of the string is returned. If $length is negative, the length is calculated to leave that many characters off the end of the string. Otherwise, $length indicates the length of the substring to extract, which is sort of what you'd expect. An alternative to using UTF2::substr as an lvalue is to specify the $replacement string as the fourth argument. This allows you to replace parts of the $string and return what was there before in one operation, just as you can with splice. The next example also replaces the last character of $var with "Curly" and puts that replaced character into $oldstr: $oldstr = UTF2::substr($var, -1, 1, "Curly"); If you assign something shorter than the length of your substring, the string will shrink, and if you assign something longer than the length, the string will grow to accommodate it. To keep the string the same length, you may need to pad or chop your value using sprintf or the x operator. If you attempt to assign to an unallocated area past the end of the string, UTF2::substr raises an exception. To prepend the string "Larry" to the current value of $_, use: UTF2::substr($var, 0, 0, "Larry"); To instead replace the first character of $_ with "Moe", use: UTF2::substr($var, 0, 1, "Moe"); And finally, to replace the last character of $var with "Curly", use: UTF2::substr($var, -1, 1, "Curly");
Index By UTF-2 Character
$index = UTF2::index($string,$substring,$offset); $index = UTF2::index($string,$substring); This function searches for one string within another. It returns the position of the first occurrence of $substring in $string. The $offset, if specified, says how many characters from the start to skip before beginning to look. Positions are based at 0. If the substring is not found, the function returns one less than the base, ordinarily -1. To work your way through a string, you might say: $pos = -1; while (($pos = UTF2::index($string, $lookfor, $pos)) > -1) { print "Found at $pos\n"; $pos++; }
Rindex By UTF-2 Character
$rindex = UTF2::rindex($string,$substring,$position); $rindex = UTF2::rindex($string,$substring); This function works just like UTF2::index except that it returns the position of the last occurrence of $substring in $string (a reverse index). The function returns -1 if not $substring is found. $position, if specified, is the rightmost position that may be returned. To work your way through a string backward, say: $pos = UTF2::length($string); while (($pos = UTF2::rindex($string, $lookfor, $pos)) >= 0) { print "Found at $pos\n"; $pos--; }
Using warnings pragma on perl5.00503 by rename files. warnings.pm_ --> warnings.pm warnings/register.pm_ --> warnings/register.pm

Dummy utf8::upgrade
$num_octets = utf8::upgrade($string); Returns the number of octets necessary to represent the string.
Dummy utf8::downgrade
$success = utf8::downgrade($string[, FAIL_OK]); Returns true always.
Dummy utf8::encode
utf8::encode($string); Returns nothing.
Dummy utf8::decode
$success = utf8::decode($string); Returns true always.
Dummy utf8::is_utf8
$flag = utf8::is_utf8(STRING); Returns false always.
Dummy utf8::valid
$flag = utf8::valid(STRING); Returns true always.
Dummy bytes::chr
This function is same as chr.
Dummy bytes::index
This function is same as index.
Dummy bytes::length
This function is same as length.
Dummy bytes::ord
This function is same as ord.
Dummy bytes::rindex
This function is same as rindex.
Dummy bytes::substr
This function is same as substr.
This software uses the flock function for exclusive control. The execution of the program is blocked until it becomes possible to read or write the file. You can have it not block in the flock function by defining environment variable SJIS_NONBLOCK. Example: SET SJIS_NONBLOCK=1 (The value '1' doesn't have the meaning)
Please patches and report problems to author are welcome.
format
Function "format" can't handle multiple octet code same as original Perl.
UTF2::substr As Lvalue
UTF2::substr differs from CORE::substr, and cannot be used as a lvalue. To change part of a string, you can use the optional fourth argument which is the replacement string.
UTF2::substr($string, 13, 4, "JPerl");
Modifier /a /d /l And /u Of Regular Expression
The concept of this software is not to use two or more encoding methods at the same time. Therefore, modifier /a /d /l and /u are not supported. \d means [0-9] always.

P.401 See chapter 15: Unicode of ISBN 0-596-00027-8 Programming Perl Third Edition.
Before the introduction of Unicode support in perl, The eq operator just compared the byte-strings represented by two scalars. Beginning with perl 5.8, eq compares two byte-strings with simultaneous consideration of the UTF8 flag.
Information processing model beginning with perl 5.8 +----------------------+---------------------+ | Text strings | | +----------+-----------| Binary strings | | UTF8 | Latin-1 | | +----------+-----------+---------------------+ | UTF8 | Not UTF8 | | Flagged | Flagged | +--------------------------------------------+ http://perl-users.jp/articles/advent-calendar/2010/casual/4 You should memorize this figure. (Why is only Latin-1 special?)
This change consequentially made a big gap between a past script and new script. Both scripts cannot re-use the code mutually any longer. Because a new method puts a strain in the programmer, it will still take time to replace all the in existence scripts.
The biggest problem of new method is that the UTF8 flag can't synchronize to real encode of string. Thus you must debug about UTF8 flag, before your script. How to solve it by returning to a past method, I will quote page 402 of Programming Perl, 3rd ed. again.
Information processing model beginning with this software +-----------------------------------+ | Octet Strings | aka Binary strings +-----------------------------------+ | Character Strings | aka Text strings +-----------------------------------+ | ASCII Compatible Encoding | ex. UTF-2 +-----------------------------------+ (No UTF8 Flag) You need not memorize this figure.
Ideally, I'd like to achieve these five Goals:
Goal #1:
Old byte-oriented programs should not spontaneously break on the old byte-oriented data they used to work on.
It has already been achieved by UTF-2 designed for combining with old byte-oriented ASCII.
Goal #2:
Old byte-oriented programs should magically start working on the new character-oriented data when appropriate.
Still now, 1 octet is counted with 1 by embedded functions length, substr, index, rindex and pos that handle length and position of string. In this part, there is no change. The length of 1 character of 2 octet code is 2.
On the other hand, the regular expression in the script is added the multibyte anchoring processing with this software, instead of you.
figure of Goal #1 and Goal #2.
GOAL#1 GOAL#2 (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | data | Old | Old | New | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | script | Old | Old | New | +--------------+-------+---------------+---------------+ | interpreter | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------------------------------+ Old --- Old byte-oriented New --- New character-oriented
There is a combination from (a) to (e) in data, script and interpreter of old and new. Let's add the Encode module and this software did not exist at time of be written this document and JPerl did exist.
(a) (b) (c) (d) (e) JPerl Encode,UTF2 +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | data | Old | Old | New | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | script | Old | Old | New | +--------------+-------+---------------+---------------+ | interpreter | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------------------------------+ Old --- Old byte-oriented New --- New character-oriented
The reason why JPerl is very excellent is that it is at the position of (c). That is, it is not necessary to do a special description to the script to process new character-oriented string.
Contrasting is Encode module and describing "use UTF2;" on this software, in this case, a new description is necessary.
Goal #3:
Programs should run just as fast in the new character-oriented mode as in the old byte-oriented mode.
It is impossible. Because the following time is necessary.
(1) Time of escape script for old byte-oriented perl.
Goal #4:
Perl should remain one language, rather than forking into a byte-oriented Perl and a character-oriented Perl.
JPerl forked the perl interpreter so as not to fork the Perl language. But the Perl core team might not hope for the perl interpreter's fork. As a result, the Perl language forked, and the community was reduced through necessity.
A character-oriented perl is not necessary to make it specially, because a byte-oriented perl can already treat the binary data. This software is only an application program of Perl, a filter program. If perl can be executed, this software will be able to be executed.
And you will get support from the Perl community, when you solve the problem by the Perl script.
Goal #5:
JPerl users will be able to maintain JPerl by Perl.
May the JPerl be with you, always.
Back when Programming Perl, 3rd ed. was written, UTF8 flag was not born and Perl is designed to make the easy jobs easy. This software provide programming environment like at that time.
