## NAME
`Encode::HP` - Extra sets of HP encodings using Unicode Mapping `.ucm` files
## VERSION
This document describes version 0.03 of `Encode::HP`, released September 15, 2013.
## SYNOPSIS
```perl
use Encode;
use Encode::HP;
# Greek8
$greek8 = encode("hp-greek8", $utf8);
$utf8 = decode("hp-greek8", $greek8);
```
## DESCRIPTION
Perl 5.7.3 and later ship with with hp-roman8 encoding, however, there are additional HP encodings that are unsupported but may be encountered; hence, this CPAN module tries to provide the rest of them.

Canonical | Alias
------------|----------------
hp-greek8 | /\bgreek8$/i
hp-roman9 | /\br(oman)?9$/i
hp-thai8 | /\bthai8$/i

This version also adds the following alises:
Canonical | Alias
----------|----------------
hp-roman8 | /\br(oman)?8$/i
## UNSUPPORTED ENCODINGS

```
'8' - arabic8, hebrew8, and kana8
'15' - japanese15, korean15, and roi15
```
