=head1 DESCRIPTION |
| 15 |
|
| 16 |
The C<Char::Normalize::FullwidthHalfwidth> module provides a function |
| 17 |
that normalizes fullwidth/halfwidth compatibility characters into |
| 18 |
their canonical representations. |
| 19 |
|
| 20 |
=head1 FUNCTION |
| 21 |
|
| 22 |
This module provides a function, C<normalize_width>. It can be |
| 23 |
imported to a package by standard C<Exporter> method, as: |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
use Char::Normalize::FullwidthHalfwidth qw/normalize_width/; |
| 26 |
|
| 27 |
Note that the C<use> statement does not export anything unless the |
| 28 |
function name was explicitly specified. |
| 29 |
|
| 30 |
Alternatively, you can invoke the function in its fully qualified form |
| 31 |
as: |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
require Char::Normalize::FullwidthHalfwidth; |
| 34 |
Char::Normalize::FullwidthHalfwidth::normalize_width (\$scalarref); |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
=over 4 |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
=item C<normalize_width (I<$scalarref>)> |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
Normalize the fullwidth/halfwidth characters in the scalar referenced |
| 41 |
by the argument into their preferable form. The argument must be a |
| 42 |
scalar reference. The scalar is treated as a character string |
| 43 |
(possibly with the utf8 flag set), not a byte string. The function |
| 44 |
returns the scalar reference. |
| 45 |
|
| 46 |
The function performs the following conversions: |
| 47 |
|
| 48 |
=over 4 |
| 49 |
|
| 50 |
=item A character C<U+3000> C<IDEOGRAPHIC SPACE> (so-called fullwidth space) |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Replaced by a C<U+0020> C<SPACE> (so-called halfwidth space) |
| 53 |
character. |
| 54 |
|
| 55 |
=item Characters in the range C<U+FF01>..C<U+FF5E> (so-called fullwidth ASCII characters) |
| 56 |
|
| 57 |
Replaced by a character in the range C<U+0021>..C<U+007E> (so-called |
| 58 |
halfwidth ASCII characters). |
| 59 |
|
| 60 |
=item Characters in the range C<U+FF61>..C<U+FF9F> (halfwidth Katakana) |
| 61 |
|
| 62 |
Replaced by a corresponding so-called fullwidth Katakana (or |
| 63 |
ideographic punctuation). Note that C<U+FF9E> C<HALFWIDTH KATAKANA |
| 64 |
VOICED SOUND MARK> and C<U+FF9F> C<HALFWIDTH KATAKANA SEMI-VOICED |
| 65 |
SOUND MARK> are replaced by C<U+3099> C<COMBINING KATAKANA-HIRAGANA |
| 66 |
VOICED SOUND MARK> and C<U+309A> C<COMBINING KATAKANA-HIRAGANA |
| 67 |
SEMI-VOICED SOUND MARK> respectively, not their spacing variants. |
| 68 |
|
| 69 |
=item Characters in the range C<U+FFE0>..C<U+FFE6> (fullwidth symbols) |
| 70 |
|
| 71 |
Replaced by a corresponding canonical character. |

=head1 BUGS |
| 78 |
|
| 79 |
Not all compatibility characters in the fullwidth and halfwidth block |
| 80 |
of the Unicode Standard are currently supported - especially, |
| 81 |
halfwidth Hangul syllables are not converted to their fullwidth |
| 82 |
equivalents. A future version of this module is expected to address |
| 83 |
this issue by extending the conversion table. |
