.Ve
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
Pragma \f(CW\*(C`use charnames\*(C'\fR supports arguments \f(CW\*(C`:full\*(C'\fR, \f(CW\*(C`:short\*(C'\fR, script
names and customized aliases.  If \f(CW\*(C`:full\*(C'\fR is present, for expansion of
\&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{CHARNAME}\*(C'\fR, the string \f(CW\*(C`CHARNAME\*(C'\fR is first looked up in the list of
standard Unicode character names.  If \f(CW\*(C`:short\*(C'\fR is present, and
\&\f(CW\*(C`CHARNAME\*(C'\fR has the form \f(CW\*(C`SCRIPT:CNAME\*(C'\fR, then \f(CW\*(C`CNAME\*(C'\fR is looked up
as a letter in script \f(CW\*(C`SCRIPT\*(C'\fR.  If pragma \f(CW\*(C`use charnames\*(C'\fR is used
with script name arguments, then for \f(CW\*(C`\eN{CHARNAME}\*(C'\fR the name
\&\f(CW\*(C`CHARNAME\*(C'\fR is looked up as a letter in the given scripts (in the
specified order). Customized aliases are explained in \*(L"\s-1CUSTOM\s0 \s-1ALIASES\s0\*(R".
.PP
For lookup of \f(CW\*(C`CHARNAME\*(C'\fR inside a given script \f(CW\*(C`SCRIPTNAME\*(C'\fR
this pragma looks for the names
.PP
.Vb 3
\&  SCRIPTNAME CAPITAL LETTER CHARNAME
\&  SCRIPTNAME SMALL LETTER CHARNAME
\&  SCRIPTNAME LETTER CHARNAME
.Ve
.PP
in the table of standard Unicode names.  If \f(CW\*(C`CHARNAME\*(C'\fR is lowercase,
then the \f(CW\*(C`CAPITAL\*(C'\fR variant is ignored, otherwise the \f(CW\*(C`SMALL\*(C'\fR variant
is ignored.
.PP
Note that \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR is compile\-time, it's a special form of string
constant used inside double-quoted strings: in other words, you cannot
use variables inside the \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR.  If you want similar run-time
functionality, use \fIcharnames::vianame()\fR.
.PP
For the C0 and C1 control characters (U+0000..U+001F, U+0080..U+009F)
as of Unicode 3.1, there are no official Unicode names but you can use
instead the \s-1ISO\s0 6429 names (\s-1LINE\s0 \s-1FEED\s0, \s-1ESCAPE\s0, and so forth).  In
Unicode 3.2 (as of Perl 5.8) some naming changes take place \s-1ISO\s0 6429
has been updated, see \*(L"\s-1ALIASES\s0\*(R".  Also note that the U+UU80, U+0081,
U+0084, and U+0099 do not have names even in \s-1ISO\s0 6429.
.PP
Since the Unicode standard uses \*(L"U+HHHH\*(R", so can you: \*(L"\eN{U+263a}\*(R"
is the Unicode smiley face, or \*(L"\eN{\s-1WHITE\s0 \s-1SMILING\s0 \s-1FACE\s0}\*(R".
.SH "CUSTOM TRANSLATORS"
.IX Header "CUSTOM TRANSLATORS"
The mechanism of translation of \f(CW\*(C`\eN{...}\*(C'\fR escapes is general and not
hardwired into \fIcharnames.pm\fR.  A module can install custom
translations (inside the scope which \f(CW\*(C`use\*(C'\fRs the module) with the
following magic incantation:
.PP
.Vb 6
\&    use charnames ();           # for $charnames::hint_bits
\&    sub import {
\&        shift;
\&        $^H |= $charnames::hint_bits;
\&        $^H{charnames} = \e&translator;
\&    }
.Ve
.PP
Here \fItranslator()\fR is a subroutine which takes \f(CW\*(C`CHARNAME\*(C'\fR as an
argument, and returns text to insert into the string instead of the
\&\f(CW\*(C`\eN{CHARNAME}\*(C'\fR escape.  Since the text to insert should be different
in \f(CW\*(C`bytes\*(C'\fR mode and out of it, the function should check the current
state of \f(CW\*(C`bytes\*(C'\fR\-flag as in:
.PP
.Vb 9
\&    use bytes ();                       # for $bytes::hint_bits
\&    sub translator {
\&        if ($^H & $bytes::hint_bits) {
\&            return bytes_translator(@_);
\&        }

If you ask by name for a character that does not exist, a warning is
given and the Unicode \fIreplacement character\fR \*(L"\ex{\s-1FFFD\s0}\*(R" is returned.
.PP
If you ask by code for a character that does not exist, no warning is
given and \f(CW\*(C`undef\*(C'\fR is returned.  (Though if you ask for a code point
past U+10FFFF you do get a warning.)
.SH "BUGS"
.IX Header "BUGS"
Since evaluation of the translation function happens in a middle of
compilation (of a string literal), the translation function should not
do any \f(CW\*(C`eval\*(C'\fRs or \f(CW\*(C`require\*(C'\fRs.  This restriction should be lifted in
a future version of Perl.
