3 Unicode::Stringprep - Preparation of Internationalized
4 Strings (RFC 3454)
5
6DESCRIPTION
7
8 This module implements the stringprep framework for preparing
9 Unicode text strings in order to increase the likelihood that
10 string input and string comparison work in ways that make sense
11 for typical users throughout the world. The stringprep protocol
12 is useful for protocol identifier values, company and personal
13 names, internationalized domain names, and other text strings.
14
15 The stringprep framework does not specify how protocols should
16 prepare text strings. Protocols must create profiles of
17 stringprep in order to fully specify the processing options.
