Folks,
First, thank you for perl@14550.
Based upon that, I tried aggregating all EUCs (euc-(cn|jp|kr)) as Nick
suggested. It did work nicely except for the time it compiles. Awful
lot of time.
The tty gets silent for some 3 minutes at "Writing compiled form".
With EUC alone taking so much time we have to think carefully about how
to distribute encoding tables.
Nick and I suggested that we distribute perl5.7.3 (and 5.8.0) sans CJK
then use CPAN to add more encodings. I have thought it over and
concluded though this is technically correct, it may be not so
politically correct. I want to show perl community in CJK world show
that we care. I now believe we should do our best to include CJK
support to next perl because that is what Unicode support is all about.
After all Tcl comes with those.
But how we do that can be a problem....
I am also checking to see....
* if iconv tables can be used (there is already a CPAN module that
claims to do so but didn't work on my environment).
* my humble version of encoding schemes which I prepared for Jcode-NG
jki, how fast do you want perl 5.7.3 released? I know you are dying
to release ASAP. But at the same time compiled version of Encode
definitely needs some work besides codes. Here is my suggestion;
* If you want 5.7.3 out in a week or so, Drop EUC_JP and release the
rest. Encode::Tcl may be slow but works (Thanks to Sadahiro)
* If you can wait for one extra week I think I can make Encode::EUC and
other compile-base encodings together with Encode::(JP|ZN|KR) which call
them. I think Sadahiro's Encode::Tcl::Escape can be used to implement
Encode::ISO2022 (Or whatever that is)
