Lingua::Translit::Tables

  use Lingua::Translit::Tables qw/:checks/;

  use Lingua::Translit::Tables qw/:list/;
  translit_list_supported();

This module is primary used to provide transliteration tables for Lingua::Translit and therefore allows one to separate data and algorithm.

Beyond that, it provides routines to check if a given transliteration is supported and allows one to print a simple list of supported transliterations along with some meta information.

No symbols are exported by default.

Use either the routine's name or one of the following tags to import symbols to your namespace.

all

Import all routines.

checks

Import all routines that allow one to check if a given transliteration is supported: translit_supported() and translit_reverse_supported().

list

Import translit_list_supported(). (Convenience tag)

In case you want to add your own transliteration tables to Lingua::Translit, have a look at the developer manual included in the distribution. An online version is available at <http://www.lingua-systems.com/translit/downloads/>.

A template of a transliteration table is provided as well (xml/template.xml) so you can easily start developing.
