enc2xs is a Perl utility for creating custom Encode modules from UCM (Unicode Character Map) files. It compiles character encoding definitions into Perl modules.
The tool is used to add support for non-standard or proprietary character encodings to Perl's Encode system. UCM files define the mapping between byte sequences and Unicode code points.
enc2xs generates XS code that can be compiled into a loadable Perl module.

Requires Perl development environment. UCM format must be correct. XS compilation needs C compiler. Primarily for encoding developers.

enc2xs is part of the Encode module in Perl core, supporting the creation of custom character encoding support. It enables Perl to handle encodings not built into the standard distribution.
