Mule-UCS is an Emacs Lisp library to define encoding/decoding schemes by
|
|
|
|
rather simple translation rule.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Emacs prepares encoding/decoding schemes in the following 2 mechanisms.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
(A) ... built-in ISO/IEC 2022 encoder/decoder
|
|
|
|
(B) ... Code Conversion Language(CCL) engine
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Although (A) provides powerful encoding/decoding schemes as to
|
|
|
|
ISO/IEC 2022, we cannot utilize this for any other encoding schemes.
|
|
|
|
(B) is a simple register machine. However, CCL program is arcane

|
|
|
language because it is mysterious and obscure:-P.

Mule-UCS provides flexible and comprehensible encoding mechanism to Emacs.
|
|
|
|
Currently, Mule-UCS generates CCL program from the translation rule, but
|
|
|
|
in the future, Mule-UCS may support another conversion engine on Emacs.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Predefined conversions for Mule-UCS included in this package are:
|

|
|
|
(1) ... Unicode(UTF-7/8/16) support.
|
|
|
|
(2) ... Big5 <-> CNS conversion support.
|
|
|
|
(3) ... JIS X 0213 support.
