NAME

MARC::Charset::ASCII - MARC8/UTF8 mappings for ASCII


SYNOPSIS

 use MARC::Charset::ASCII;
 my $c = MARC::Charset::ASCII->new();


DESCRIPTION

MARC::Charset::ASCII provides a mapping between the MARC8 ASCII character set and Unicode(UTF8). It is typically used by MARC::Charset, so you probably don't need to use this yourself. It inherits from MARC::Charset::Generic so you'll have to look at those docs to see all the methods you can call.


METHODS

The constructor, which will return you a MARC::Charset::ASCII object.


lookup()

The workhorse method that does the lookup. Pass it an a character and you'll get back the UTF8 character.


combining()

Pass it a character and you'll get back a true value (1) if the character is a combining character, and false (undef) if it is not.
