348
349=head1 DESCRIPTION
350
351Pragma C<use charnames> supports arguments C<:full>, C<:short>, script
352names and customized aliases.  If C<:full> is present, for expansion of
353C<\N{CHARNAME}>, the string C<CHARNAME> is first looked up in the list of
354standard Unicode character names.  If C<:short> is present, and
355C<CHARNAME> has the form C<SCRIPT:CNAME>, then C<CNAME> is looked up
356as a letter in script C<SCRIPT>.  If pragma C<use charnames> is used
357with script name arguments, then for C<\N{CHARNAME}> the name
358C<CHARNAME> is looked up as a letter in the given scripts (in the
359specified order). Customized aliases are explained in L</CUSTOM ALIASES>.
360
361For lookup of C<CHARNAME> inside a given script C<SCRIPTNAME>
362this pragma looks for the names
363
364  SCRIPTNAME CAPITAL LETTER CHARNAME
365  SCRIPTNAME SMALL LETTER CHARNAME
366  SCRIPTNAME LETTER CHARNAME
367
368in the table of standard Unicode names.  If C<CHARNAME> is lowercase,
369then the C<CAPITAL> variant is ignored, otherwise the C<SMALL> variant
370is ignored.
371
372Note that C<\N{...}> is compile-time, it's a special form of string
373constant used inside double-quoted strings: in other words, you cannot
374use variables inside the C<\N{...}>.  If you want similar run-time
375functionality, use charnames::vianame().
376
377For the C0 and C1 control characters (U+0000..U+001F, U+0080..U+009F)
378as of Unicode 3.1, there are no official Unicode names but you can use
379instead the ISO 6429 names (LINE FEED, ESCAPE, and so forth).  In
380Unicode 3.2 (as of Perl 5.8) some naming changes take place ISO 6429
381has been updated, see L</ALIASES>.  Also note that the U+UU80, U+0081,
382U+0084, and U+0099 do not have names even in ISO 6429.
383
384Since the Unicode standard uses "U+HHHH", so can you: "\N{U+263a}"
385is the Unicode smiley face, or "\N{WHITE SMILING FACE}".
386
387=head1 ALIASES
388
389A few aliases have been defined for convenience: instead of having
390to use the official names
391
392    LINE FEED (LF)
393    FORM FEED (FF)
394    CARRIAGE RETURN (CR)
395    NEXT LINE (NEL)
396
397(yes, with parentheses) one can use
398
399    LINE FEED
400    FORM FEED
401    CARRIAGE RETURN
402    NEXT LINE
403    LF
404    FF
405    CR
406    NEL
407
408One can also use
409
410    BYTE ORDER MARK
411    BOM
412
413and
414
415    ZWNJ
416    ZWJ
417
418for ZERO WIDTH NON-JOINER and ZERO WIDTH JOINER.
419
420For backward compatibility one can use the old names for
421certain C0 and C1 controls
422
423    old                         new
424
425    HORIZONTAL TABULATION       CHARACTER TABULATION
426    VERTICAL TABULATION         LINE TABULATION
427    FILE SEPARATOR              INFORMATION SEPARATOR FOUR
428    GROUP SEPARATOR             INFORMATION SEPARATOR THREE
429    RECORD SEPARATOR            INFORMATION SEPARATOR TWO
430    UNIT SEPARATOR              INFORMATION SEPARATOR ONE
431    PARTIAL LINE DOWN           PARTIAL LINE FORWARD
432    PARTIAL LINE UP             PARTIAL LINE BACKWARD
433
434but the old names in addition to giving the character
435will also give a warning about being deprecated.
436
437=head1 CUSTOM ALIASES
438
439This version of charnames supports three mechanisms of adding local
440or customized aliases to standard Unicode naming conventions (:full)
441
442=head2 Anonymous hashes
443
444    use charnames ":full", ":alias" => {
445        e_ACUTE => "LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE",
446        };
447    my $str = "\N{e_ACUTE}";
448
449=head2 Alias file
450
451    use charnames ":full", ":alias" => "pro";
452
453    will try to read "unicore/pro_alias.pl" from the @INC path. This
454    file should return a list in plain perl:
455
456    (
457    A_GRAVE         => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH GRAVE",
458    A_CIRCUM        => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH CIRCUMFLEX",
459    A_DIAERES       => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH DIAERESIS",
460    A_TILDE         => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH TILDE",
461    A_BREVE         => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH BREVE",
462    A_RING          => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH RING ABOVE",
463    A_MACRON        => "LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A WITH MACRON",
464    );
465
466=head2 Alias shortcut
467
468    use charnames ":alias" => ":pro";
469
470    works exactly the same as the alias pairs, only this time,
471    ":full" is inserted automatically as first argument (if no
472    other argument is given).
473
474=head1 charnames::viacode(code)
475
476Returns the full name of the character indicated by the numeric code.
477The example
478
479    print charnames::viacode(0x2722);
480
481prints "FOUR TEARDROP-SPOKED ASTERISK".
482
483Returns undef if no name is known for the code.
484
485This works only for the standard names, and does not yet apply
486to custom translators.
487
488Notice that the name returned for of U+FEFF is "ZERO WIDTH NO-BREAK
489SPACE", not "BYTE ORDER MARK".
490
491=head1 charnames::vianame(name)
492
493Returns the code point indicated by the name.
494The example
495
496    printf "%04X", charnames::vianame("FOUR TEARDROP-SPOKED ASTERISK");
497
498prints "2722".
499
500Returns undef if the name is unknown.
501
502This works only for the standard names, and does not yet apply
503to custom translators.
504
505=head1 CUSTOM TRANSLATORS
506
507The mechanism of translation of C<\N{...}> escapes is general and not
508hardwired into F<charnames.pm>.  A module can install custom
509translations (inside the scope which C<use>s the module) with the
510following magic incantation:
511
512    sub import {
513	shift;
514	$^H{charnames} = \&translator;
515    }
516
517Here translator() is a subroutine which takes C<CHARNAME> as an
518argument, and returns text to insert into the string instead of the
519C<\N{CHARNAME}> escape.  Since the text to insert should be different
520in C<bytes> mode and out of it, the function should check the current
521state of C<bytes>-flag as in:
522
523    use bytes ();			# for $bytes::hint_bits
524    sub translator {
525	if ($^H & $bytes::hint_bits) {
526	    return bytes_translator(@_);
527	}
528	else {
529	    return utf8_translator(@_);
530	}
531    }

534
535If you ask by name for a character that does not exist, a warning is
536given and the Unicode I<replacement character> "\x{FFFD}" is returned.
537
538If you ask by code for a character that does not exist, no warning is
539given and C<undef> is returned.  (Though if you ask for a code point
540past U+10FFFF you do get a warning.)

544Since evaluation of the translation function happens in a middle of
545compilation (of a string literal), the translation function should not
546do any C<eval>s or C<require>s.  This restriction should be lifted in
547a future version of Perl.
