NAME

       Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG - ZDMG phonetic transcription of Arabic using the ArabTeX
       notation

SYNOPSIS

           use Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG;  # imports just like 'use Encode' would, plus extended options

           while ($line = <>) {                # maps the ArabTeX notation for Arabic into the Latin symbols

               print encode 'utf8', decode 'zdmg', $line;        # 'ZDMG' alias 'ArabTeX-ZDMG'
           }

           # ArabTeX lower ASCII transliteration <--> Latin phonetic transcription, ZDMG style

           $string = decode 'ArabTeX-ZDMG', $octets;
           $octets = encode 'ArabTeX-ZDMG', $string;

DESCRIPTION

       ArabTeX is an excellent extension to TeX/LaTeX designed for typesetting the right-to-left
       scripts of the Orient. It comes up with very intuitive and comprehensible lower ASCII
       transliterations, the expressive power of which is even better than that of the scripts.

       Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG implements the rules needed for proper interpretation of the
       ArabTeX notation of Arabic into the phonetic transcription in the ZDMG style.  The
       conversion ifself is done by Encode::Mapper, and the user interface is built on the
       Encode::Encoding module.

       Relevant guidance is given in Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX, from which this module inherits.
       The transformation rules are, however, quite different ;)
