#DESCRIPTION

This module implements China-based Chinese charset encodings. Encodings supported are as follows.

#NOTES

Due to size concerns,GB 18030 (an extension toGBK) is distributed separately on CPAN, under the nameEncode::HanExtra. That module also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.

#BUGS

When you seecharset=gb2312 on mails and web pages, they really meaneuc-cn encodings. To fix that,gb2312 is aliased toeuc-cn. Usegb2312-raw when you really mean it.

The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.
