EUC(4) MachTen Programmer’s Manual EUC(4)

NAME
EUC - EUC encoding of runes

SYNOPSIS
ENCODING "EUC"
VARIABLE len1 mask1 len2 mask2 len3 mask3 len4 mask4 mask

DESCRIPTION
The EUC encoding is provided for compatibility with UNIX based systems.
See mklocale(1) for a complete description of the LC_CTYPE source file
format.

EUC implements a system of 4 multibyte codesets. A multibyte character
in the first codeset consists of len1 bytes starting with a byte in the
range of 0x00 to 0x7f. To allow use of ASCII, len1 is always 1. A
multibyte character in the second codeset consists of len2 bytes starting
with a byte in the range of 0x80-0xff excluding 0x8e and 0x8f. A multi-
byte character in the third codeset consists of len3 bytes starting with
the byte 0x8e. A multibyte character in the fourth codeset consists of
len4 bytes starting with the byte 0x8f.

The rune_t encoding of EUC multibyte characters is dependent on the len
and mask arguments. First, the bytes are moved into a rune_t as follows:

byte0 << ((lenN-1) * 8) | byte1 << ((lenN-2) * 8) | ... | bytelenN-1

The result is then ANDed with ~mask and ORed with maskN. Codesets 2 and 3
are special in that the leading byte (0x8e or 0x8f) is first removed and
the lenN argument is reduced by 1.

For example, the Japanese locale has the following VARIABLE line:

VARIABLE 1 0x0000 2 0x8080 2 0x0080 3 0x8000 0x8080

Codeset 1 consists of the values 0x0000 - 0x007f.

Codeset 2 consists of the values who have the bits 0x8080 set.

Codeset 3 consists of the values 0x0080 - 0x00ff.

Codeset 4 consists of the values 0x8000 - 0xff7f excluding the values
which have the 0x0080 bit set.

Notice that the global mask is set to 0x8080, this implies that from
those 2 bits the codeset can be determined.
