DESCRIPTION
This software is a source code filter, a transpiler-modulino.
Perl is said to have been able to handle Unicode since version 5.8. However,
unlike JPerl, "Easy jobs easy" has been lost. (but we have got it again :-D)
In Shift_JIS and similar encodings(Big5, Big5-HKSCS, GB18030, GBK, Sjis, UHC)
have any DAMEMOJI who have metacharacters at second octet. Which characters
are DAMEMOJI is depends on whether the enclosing delimiter is single quote or
double quote.
This software escapes DAMEMOJI in your script, generate a new script and
run it.
There are some MBCS encodings in the world.
in Japan since 1978, JIS C 6226-1978,
in China since 1980, GB 2312-80,
in Taiwan since 1984, Big5,
in South Korea since 1991, KS X 1002:1991, and more.
Even if you are an avid Unicode proponent, you cannot change this fact. These
encodings are still used today in most areas except the world wide web.
This software ...
* supports MBCS literals in Perl scripts
* supports Big5, Big5-HKSCS, EUC-JP, GB18030, GBK, Sjis, UHC, UTF-8, and WTF-8
* does not use the UTF8 flag to avoid MOJIBAKE
* escapes DAMEMOJI in scripts
* handles raw encoding to support GAIJI
* adds multibyte anchoring to regular expressions
* rewrites character classes in regular expressions to work as MBCS codepoint
* supports special variables $`, $&, and $'
* does not change features of octet-oriented built-in functions
* lc(), lcfirst(), uc(), and ucfirst() convert US-ASCII only
* codepoint range by hyphen of tr/// and y/// support US-ASCII only
* You have to write mb::* subroutines if you want codepoint semantics
Let's enjoy MBSC scripting in Perl!!
TERMINOLOGY
To understand and use this software, you must know some terminologies.
But now I have no time for write them. So today is July 7th, I have to go to
meet Juliet.
The necessary terms are listed below. Maybe world wide web will help you.

MBCS subroutines provided by this software
This software provides traditional feature "as was." The new MBCS features
are provided by subroutines with new names. If you like utf8 pragma, mb::*
subroutines will help you. On other hand, If you love JPerl, those
subroutines will not help you very much. Traditional functions of Perl are
useful still now in octet-oriented semantics.

DOS-like glob() as MBCS subroutine

-----------------------------------------------------------------
mb::dosglob glob, and <globbing*>

index brothers
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
functions or subs works as returns as considered
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
index octet octet useful, bare Perl like
rindex octet octet useful, bare Perl like
mb::index codepoint codepoint not so useful, utf8 pragma like
mb::rindex codepoint codepoint not so useful, utf8 pragma like
mb::index_byte codepoint octet useful, JPerl like
mb::rindex_byte codepoint octet useful, JPerl like
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sometimes "compatibility" means "compromise." In that case, "best compatibility" means
"most useful compromise." That's what mb::index_byte() and mb::rindex_byte() are.
But sorry for the long name.
MBCS special variables provided by this software
This software provides the following two special variables for convenience.
$mb::PERL
system(qq{ $^X perl_script.pl }); # had been write this... # on mb.pm modulino system(qq{ $^X SBCS_perl_script.pl }); # for SBCS script system(qq{ $mb::PERL MBCS_perl_script.pl }); # for MBCS script
$mb::ORIG_PROGRAM_NAME
if ($0 =~ /-x64\.pl\z/) { ... } # had been write this... # on mb.pm modulino if ($0 =~ /-x64\.pl\z/) { ... } # means program name translated by mb.pm modulino (are you right?) if ($mb::ORIG_PROGRAM_NAME =~ /-x64\.pl\z/) { ... } # means original program name not translated by mb.pm modulino

DEPENDENCIES
This mb.pm modulino requires perl5.00503 or later to use. Also requires 'strict'
module. It requires the 'warnings' module, too if perl 5.6 or later.
Fatal Bugs Unavoidable
You can avoid the following bugs with little hacks.
chdir() on Microsoft Windows
Function chdir() cannot work if path is ended by chr(0x5C).
This problem is specific to Microsoft Windows. It is not caused by the mb.pm modulino or the perl interpreter. # chdir.pl mkdir((qw( `/ ))[0], 0777); print "got=", chdir((qw( `/ ))[0]), " cwd=", `cd`; C:\HOME>perl5.00503.exe chdir.pl GOOD ==> got=1 cwd=C:\HOME\`/ C:\HOME>strawberry-perl-5.8.9.5.exe chdir.pl BAD ==> got=1 cwd=C:\HOME
This is a lost technology in this century.
# suggested module name use mb::WinDir; # supports for all MBCS on Microsoft Windows my $wd = mb::WinDir->new('`/'); $wd->chdir('..'); $wd->open(my $fh, ...);
Look-behind Assertion
The look-behind assertion like (?<=[A-Z]) or (?<![A-Z]) are not prevented from matching trail octet of the previous MBCS codepoint.
Please give us your good hack on this.
Empty Variable in Regular Expression
An empty literal string as regexp means empty string. Unlike original Perl, if 'pattern' is an empty string, the last successfully matched regexp is NOT used. Similarly, empty string made by interpolated variable means empty string, too.
Small Bugs Avoidable
The following is a description of the minor incompatibilities. These are not likely to be programming constraints.
Hyphen of tr/// Supports US-ASCII Only
Supported ranges of tr/// and y/// by hyphen are US-ASCII only.
Special Variables $` and $& need m/( Capture All )/
If you use the special variables $ ` or $&, you must enclose the entire regular expression in parentheses. Because $` and $& needs $1 to implement its.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- in your script after m//, works as after s///, works as ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- $` CORE::substr($&, 0, -CORE::length($1)) $1 ${`} CORE::substr($&, 0, -CORE::length($1)) $1 $PREMATCH CORE::substr($&, 0, -CORE::length($1)) $1 ${^PREMATCH} CORE::substr($&, 0, -CORE::length($1)) $1 $& $1 CORE::substr($&, CORE::length($1)) ${&} $1 CORE::substr($&, CORE::length($1)) $MATCH $1 CORE::substr($&, CORE::length($1)) ${^MATCH} $1 CORE::substr($&, CORE::length($1)) ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
In the past, Perl scripts with special variables $` and $& had a problem with slow execution. Both that era and today, capturing by parentheses works well.
Return Value from tr///s
tr/// (or y///) operator with /s modifier returns 1 always. If you need right number, you can use mb::tr().
$var1 = 'AAA'; $got = $var1 =~ tr/A/1/s; # works as $got = $var1 =~ s{[\x00-\xFF]*}{mb::tr($&,q/A/,q/1/,'sr')}e; BAD ==> got 1 $var2 = 'BBB'; $got = $var2 =~ tr/A/1/s; # works as $got = $var2 =~ s{[\x00-\xFF]*}{mb::tr($&,q/A/,q/1/,'sr')}e; BAD ==> got 1 $var3 = 'AAA'; $got = mb::tr($var3,'A','1','s'); # works as $got = mb::tr($var3,'A','1','s'); GOOD ==> got 3 Transliteration routine $return = mb::tr($MBCS_string, $searchlist, $replacementlist, $modifier); $return = mb::tr($MBCS_string, $searchlist, $replacementlist); This subroutine is a runtime routine to implement tr/// operator for MBCS codepoint. This subroutine scans an $MBCS_string by codepoint and replaces all occurrences of the codepoint found in $searchlist with the corresponding codepoint in $replacementlist. It returns the number of codepoint replaced or deleted except on /s modifier used. $modifier are: --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Modifier Meaning --------------------------------------------------------------------------- c Complement $searchlist. d Delete found but unreplaced characters. s Squash duplicate replaced characters. r Return transliteration and leave the original string untouched. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- To use with a read-only value without raising an exception, use the /r modifier. print mb::tr('bookkeeper','boep','peob','r'); # prints 'peekkoobor'
mb::substr as Lvalue
If perl version is older than 5.14, mb::substr differs from CORE::substr, and cannot be used as an lvalue. To change part of a string, you need use the optional fourth argument which is the replacement string.
mb::substr($string, 13, 4, "JPerl");
If you use perl 5.14 or later, you can use lvalue feature.
Not Supported Features
mb.pm modulino does not support the following features. In our experience with JPerl, these features are rarely needed. Moreover, if we are going to implement these, we will need a large amount of code, and we will need to update it frequently. If we are going to implement these, it's better to implement them as other modules.
Delimiter of String and Regexp
qq//, q//, qw//, qx//, qr//, m//, s///, tr///, and y/// can't use a wide codepoint as the delimiter. I didn't implement this feature because it's rarely needed.
fc(), lc(), lcfirst(), uc(), and ucfirst()
fc() not supported. lc(), lcfirst(), uc(), and ucfirst() support US-ASCII only.
# suggested module name use mb::Casing; # supports for all MBCS, including UTF-8 my $lc_string = mb::Casing::lc($string); my $lcfirst_string = mb::Casing::lcfirst($string); my $uc_string = mb::Casing::uc($string); my $ucfirst_string = mb::Casing::ucfirst($string); my $fc_string = mb::Casing::fc($string);
Cloister of Regular Expression
The cloister (?i) and (?i:...) of a regular expression on encoding of big5, big5hkscs, gb18030, gbk, sjis, and uhc will not be implemented for the time being. I didn't implement this feature because it was difficult to implement and less necessary. If you're interested in this issue, try challenge it.
Named Codepoint
A named codepoint, such \N{GREEK SMALL LETTER EPSILON}, \N{greek:epsilon}, or \N{epsilon} is not supported.
# suggested module name use mb::Charnames qw( %N ); # supports for all MBCS, including UTF-8 print "$N{'GREEK SMALL LETTER EPSILON'}"; # By the way, you know how great it is to be able to write MBCS literal strings in your Perl scripts, right?
Unicode Properties (aka Codepoint Properties) of Regular Expression
Unicode properties (aka codepoint properties) of regexp are not available. Also (?[]) in regexp of perl 5.18 is not available. There is no plans to currently support these.
# suggested module name use mb::RegExp::Properties qw( %p %P ); # supports for all MBCS, including UTF-8 $string =~ /$p{Uppercase}/;
This feature (\p{prop} and \P{prop}) is not stable in the Perl specification. Thus, this feature is not available in scripts that require long-term maintenance.
For example, [:alpha:] at Perl 5.005 (not supported) at Perl 5.6 \p{IsAlpha} at Perl 5.12.1 \p{PosixAlpha}, and \p{Alpha} at Perl 5.14 \p{X_POSIX_Alpha}, \p{POSIX_Alpha}, \p{XPosixAlpha}, and \p{PosixAlpha}
\b{...} \B{...} Boundaries in Regular Expressions
Following \b{...} \B{...} available starting in Perl 5.22 are not supported.
\b{gcb} or \b{g} Unicode "Grapheme Cluster Boundary" \b{sb} Unicode "Sentence Boundary" \b{wb} Unicode "Word Boundary" \B{gcb} or \B{g} Unicode "Grapheme Cluster Boundary" doesn't match \B{sb} Unicode "Sentence Boundary" doesn't match \B{wb} Unicode "Word Boundary" doesn't match # suggested module name use mb::RegExp::Boundaries qw( %b %B ); # supports for all MBCS, including UTF-8 $string =~ /$b{wb}(.+)$b{wb}/;
This feature (\b{...} and \B{...}) considered not yet stable in the Perl specification.
Modifier /a /d /l and /u of Regular Expression
I have removed these modifiers to remove your headache. The concept of this software is not to use two or more encoding methods as literal string and literal of regexp in one Perl script. Therefore, modifier /a, /d, /l, and /u are not supported. \d means [0-9] universally.
?? and m?? are Not Supported
Multibyte character needs ( ) which is before {n,m}, {n,}, {n}, *, and + in ?? or m??. As a result, you need to rewrite a script about $1,$2,$3,... You cannot use (?: ), ?, {n,m}?, {n,}?, and {n}? in ?? and m??, because delimiter of m?? is '?'. Here's a quote words from Dan Kogai-san. "I'm just a programmer, so I can't fix the bug of the spec."
format
Unlike JPerl, mb.pm modulino does not support the format feature. Because it is difficult to implement and you can write the same script in other any ways.
Other Limitations
Limitation of Regular Expression
This software has limitation from \G in multibyte anchoring. Only perl 5.30.0 or later can treat the codepoint string which exceeds 65534 octets with a regular expression, and only perl 5.10.1 or later can 32766 octets.
see also, The upper limit "n" specifiable in a regular expression quantifier of the form "{m,n}" has been doubled to 65534 https://metacpan.org/pod/release/XSAWYERX/perl-5.30.0/pod/perldelta.pod#The-upper-limit-%22n%22-specifiable-in-a-regular-expression-quantifier-of-the-form-%22%7Bm,n%7D%22-has-been-doubled-to-65534 In 5.10.0, the * quantifier in patterns was sometimes treated as {0,32767} http://perldoc.perl.org/perl5101delta.html [perl #116379] \G can't treat over 32767 octet http://www.nntp.perl.org/group/perl.perl5.porters/2013/01/msg197320.html perlre - Perl regular expressions http://perldoc.perl.org/perlre.html perlre length limit http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4592467/perlre-length-limit
Everything in this world has limits. If you use perl 5.10 or later, or perl 5.30 or later, you can increase those limits. That's all.
UTF8 Flag Considered Harmful, and Our Goals
Larry Wall must think that "escaping" is the best solution in this case.
P.401 See chapter 15: Unicode of ISBN 0-596-00027-8 Programming Perl Third Edition.
Before the introduction of Unicode support in perl, The eq operator just compared the byte-strings represented by two scalars. Beginning with perl 5.8, eq compares two byte-strings with simultaneous consideration of the UTF8 flag.
-- we have been taught so for a long time.
Perl is a powerful language for everyone, but UTF8 flag is a barrier for common beginners. Because everyone can only one task on one time. So calling Encode::encode() and Encode::decode() in application program is not better way. Making two scripts for information processing and encoding conversion may be better. Please trust me.

http://perl-users.jp/articles/advent-calendar/2010/casual/4
Confusion of Perl string model is made from double meanings of
"Binary string."
Meanings of "Binary string" are
1. Non-Text string
2. Digital octet string
Let's draw again using those term.

There are people who don't agree to change in the character string processing model at Perl 5.8. It is impossible to get agreement it from majority of Perl programmers who are not heavy users. How to solve it by returning to an original Perl, let's read page 402 of the Programming Perl, 3rd edition, again.

| Text string as Digital octet string |
| Digital octet string as Text string |

| Not UTF8 Flagged, No MOJIBAKE |

In UNIX Everything is a File
- In UNIX everything is a stream of bytes
- In UNIX the filesystem is used as a universal name space
Native Encoding Scripting
- native encoding of file contents
- native encoding of file name on filesystem
- native encoding of command line
- native encoding of environment variable
- native encoding of API
- native encoding of network packet
- native encoding of database
Ideally, We'd like to achieve these five Goals:
Goal #1:
Old byte-oriented programs should not spontaneously break on the old byte-oriented data they used to work on.
This software attempts to achieve this goal by embedded functions work as traditional and stably.
Goal #2:
Old byte-oriented programs should magically start working on the new character-oriented data when appropriate.
This software is not a magician, so cannot see your mind and run it.
You must decide and write octet semantics or codepoint semantics yourself in case by case.
figure of Goal #1 and Goal #2.
Goal #1 Goal #2 (a) (b) (c) (d) (e) +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | data | Old | Old | New | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | script | Old | Old | New | +--------------+-------+---------------+---------------+ | interpreter | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------------------------------+ Old --- Old byte-oriented New --- New codepoint-oriented
There is a combination from (a) to (e) in data, script, and interpreter of old and new. Let's add JPerl, utf8 pragma, and this software.
(a) (b) (c) (d) (e) JPerl,mb utf8 +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | data | Old | Old | New | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------+-------+-------+-------+ | script | Old | Old | New | +--------------+-------+---------------+---------------+ | interpreter | Old | New | +--------------+-------+-------------------------------+ Old --- Old byte-oriented New --- New codepoint-oriented
The reason why JPerl is very excellent is that it is at the position of (c). That is, it is almost not necessary to write a special code to process new codepoint oriented script.
Goal #3:
Programs should run just as fast in the new character-oriented mode as in the old byte-oriented mode.
It is impossible. Because the following time is necessary.
(1) Time of escape script for old byte-oriented perl.
(2) Time of processing regular expression by escaped script while multibyte anchoring.
Goal #4:
Perl should remain one language, rather than forking into a byte-oriented Perl and a character-oriented Perl.
JPerl remains one Perl "language" by forking to two "interpreters." However, the Perl core team did not desire fork of the "interpreter." As a result, Perl "language" forked contrary to goal #4.
A codepoint oriented perl is not necessary to make it specially, because a byte-oriented perl can already treat the binary data. This software is only an application program of byte-oriented Perl, a filter program.
And you will get support from the Perl community, when you solve the problem by the Perl script.
mb.pm modulino keeps one "language" and one "interpreter."
Goal #5:
mb.pm users will be able to maintain mb.pm by Perl.
May the mb.pm be with you, always.
Back when Programming Perl, 3rd ed. was written, UTF8 flag was not born and Perl is designed to make the easy jobs easy. This software provides programming environment like at that time.
Perl's Motto
Some computer scientists (the reductionists, in particular) would
like to deny it, but people have funny-shaped minds. Mental geography
is not linear, and cannot be mapped onto a flat surface without
severe distortion. But for the last score years or so, computer
reductionists have been first bowing down at the Temple of Orthogonality,
then rising up to preach their ideas of ascetic rectitude to any who
would listen.
Their fervent but misguided desire was simply to squash your mind to
fit their mindset, to smush your patterns of thought into some sort of
Hyperdimensional Flatland. It's a joyless existence, being smushed.
--- Learning Perl on Win32 Systems
If you think this is a big headache, you're right. No one likes
this situation, but Perl does the best it can with the input and
encodings it has to deal with. If only we could reset history and
not make so many mistakes next time.
--- Learning Perl 6th Edition
The most important thing for most people to know about handling
Unicode data in Perl, however, is that if you don't ever use any Uni-
code data -- if none of your files are marked as UTF-8 and you don't
use UTF-8 locales -- then you can happily pretend that you're back in
Perl 5.005_03 land; the Unicode features will in no way interfere with
your code unless you're explicitly using them. Sometimes the twin
goals of embracing Unicode but not disturbing old-style byte-oriented
scripts has led to compromise and confusion, but it's the Perl way to
silently do the right thing, which is what Perl ends up doing.

mb.pm modulino and UTF8::R2 module
The following is a description of all the situations in which mb.pm modulino and UTF8::R2 module are used in Japan.
+-------------+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
| OS encoding | I/O encoding | script encoding |
| | |----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | CP932 | UTF-8 |
+-------------+--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | > perl mb.pm script.pl | > perl mb.pm -e utf8 script.pl |
| | CP932 | | use IOas::CP932; # I/O |
| | | | use mb::Encode; # file-path |
| CP932 +--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | > perl mb.pm script.pl | > perl mb.pm -e utf8 script.pl |
| | UTF-8 | use IOas::CP932; # I/O | |
| | | | use mb::Encode; # file-path |
+-------------+--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | $ perl mb.pm -e sjis script.pl | $ perl mb.pm script.pl |
| | CP932 | | use IOas::CP932; # I/O |
| | | use mb::Encode; # file-path | |
| UTF-8 +--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | $ perl mb.pm -e sjis script.pl | $ perl mb.pm script.pl |
| | UTF-8 | use IOas::UTF8; # I/O | |
| | | use mb::Encode; # file-path | |
+-------------+--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
Some of the above are useful combinations:
+-------------+--------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------+
| OS encoding | I/O encoding | script encoding |
| | |----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | CP932 | UTF-8 |
+-------------+--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | > perl mb.pm script.pl | |
| | CP932 | | |
| | | | |
| CP932 +--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | | > perl mb.pm -e utf8 script.pl |
| | UTF-8 | | |
| | | | use mb::Encode; # file-path |
+-------------+--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | $ perl mb.pm -e sjis script.pl | |
| | CP932 | | |
| | | use mb::Encode; # file-path | |
| UTF-8 +--------------+----------------------------------+----------------------------------+
| | | | $ perl mb.pm script.pl |
| | UTF-8 | | |
