NAME

       URI::_punycode - encodes Unicode string in Punycode

SYNOPSIS

         use URI::_punycode;
         $punycode = encode_punycode($unicode);
         $unicode  = decode_punycode($punycode);

DESCRIPTION

       URI::_punycode is a module to encode / decode Unicode strings into Punycode, an efficient encoding of
       Unicode for use with IDNA.

       This module requires Perl 5.6.0 or over to handle UTF8 flagged Unicode strings.

FUNCTIONS

       This module exports following functions by default.

       encode_punycode
             $punycode = encode_punycode($unicode);

           takes Unicode string (UTF8-flagged variable) and returns Punycode encoding for it.

       decode_punycode
             $unicode = decode_punycode($punycode)

           takes Punycode encoding and returns original Unicode string.

       These functions throw exceptions on failure. You can catch 'em via "eval".
