DESCRIPTION
This module implements China-based Chinese charset encodings. Encodings supported are as follows.

NOTES
Due to size concerns, GB 18030 (an extension to GBK ) is distributed separately on CPAN, under the name Encode::HanExtra. That module also contains extra Taiwan-based encodings.
BUGS
When you see charset=gb2312 on mails and web pages, they really mean euc-cn encodings. To fix that, gb2312 is aliased to euc-cn . Use gb2312-raw when you really mean it.
The ASCII region (0x00-0x7f) is preserved for all encodings, even though this conflicts with mappings by the Unicode Consortium.
