First, thank you all for perl@14503. On 2002.01.30, at 07:07, Nick Ing-Simmons wrote: > If I run the compile script on it and build Encode::EUC_JP > as an XS extension and change Encode::Tcl to ....
I also made Encode::JP::SHIFTJIS, with Encode::EUC_JP as a template (Also relocated Encode::EUC_JP to Encode::JP:EUC_JP) and it also worked. I have a feeling this will work for other CJK. Now the problem is escape-based codings such as ISO-2022. Another small problem is that XS-based encoding consumes a whole directory immediately under perl/ext/Encode. Well, I can live with a few dozens more. And the speed of the compile script may be a problem if we want all CJK to be XS-based. It roughly takes about 25 seconds to compile single CJK encoding on my FreeBSD box. Well, I can live with that too but other porters may find it frustrating.... I think we are making a significant progress in CJK.... Dan
