=head1 NAME
charnames - access to Unicode character names and named character sequences; also define character names
=head1 SYNOPSIS
use charnames ':full';
print "\N{GREEK SMALL LETTER SIGMA} is called sigma.\n";
print "\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER E WITH VERTICAL LINE BELOW}",
" is an officially named sequence of two Unicode characters\n";
use charnames ':loose';
print "\N{Greek small-letter sigma}",
"can be used to ignore case, underscores, most blanks,"
"and when you aren't sure if the official name has hyphens\n";
use charnames ':short';
print "\N{greek:Sigma} is an upper-case sigma.\n";
use charnames qw(cyrillic greek);
print "\N{sigma} is Greek sigma, and \N{be} is Cyrillic b.\n";

use charnames ":full", ":alias" => {
e_ACUTE => "LATIN SMALL LETTER E WITH ACUTE",
mychar => 0xE8000, # Private use area

};
print "\N{e_ACUTE} is a small letter e with an acute.\n";
print "\N{mychar} allows me to name private use characters.\n";
print "And I can create synonyms in other languages,",
" such as \N{自転車に乗る人} for "BICYCLIST (U+1F6B4)\n";
use charnames ();

printf "%04X", charnames::vianame("GOTHIC LETTER AHSA"); # prints
# "10330"
print charnames::vianame("LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A"); # prints 65 on
# ASCII platforms;
# 193 on EBCDIC
print charnames::string_vianame("LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A"); # prints "A"
