NAME

6       Lingua::Translit::Tables - provides transliteration tables
7

SYNOPSIS

9         use Lingua::Translit::Tables qw/:checks/;
10
11         my $truth;
12
13         $truth = translit_supported("ISO 9");
14         $truth = translit_reverse_supported("ISO 9");
15
16         use Lingua::Translit::Tables qw/:list/;
17
18         translit_list_supported();
19

DESCRIPTION

21       This module is primary used to provide transliteration tables for
22       Lingua::Translit and therefore allows one to separate data and
23       algorithm.
24
25       Beyond that, it provides routines to check if a given transliteration
26       is supported and allows one to print a simple list of supported
27       transliterations along with some meta information.
28

EXPORTS

30       No symbols are exported by default.
31
32       Use either the routine's name or one of the following tags to import
33       symbols to your namespace.
34
35       all Import all routines.
36
37       checks
38           Import all routines that allow one to check if a given
39           transliteration is supported: translit_supported() and
40           translit_reverse_supported().
41
42       list
43           Import translit_list_supported(). (Convenience tag)
44

ROUTINES

46   translit_supported(translit_name)
47       Returns true (1), iff translit_name is supported. False (0) otherwise.
48
49   translit_reverse_supported(translit_name)
50       Returns true (1), iff translit_name is supported and allows reverse
51       transliteration. False (0) otherwise.
52
53   translit_list_supported()
54       Prints a list of all supported transliterations to STDOUT (UTF-8
55       encoded), providing the following information:
56
57         * Name
58         * Reversibility
59         * Description
60
61       The same information is provided in this document as well:

ADDING NEW TRANSLITERATIONS

129       In case you want to add your own transliteration tables to
130       Lingua::Translit, have a look at the developer documentation at
131       <https://www.netzum-sorglos.de/software/lingua-translit/developer-documentation.html>.
132
133       A template of a transliteration table is provided as well
134       (xml/template.xml) so you can easily start developing.
135
