    Perl

SYNOPSIS
        use Encode;
        use Encode::JP::Emoji;

        # DoCoMo Shift_JIS <SJIS+F89F> octets to DoCoMo UTF-8 <U+E63E> octets

        Encode::from_to($sun, 'x-sjis-emoji-docomo', 'utf8');

        my $scream = "\xF7\xF5";
        Encode::from_to($scream, 'x-sjis-e4u-kddiapp', 'x-sjis-e4u-softbank3g');

DESCRIPTION
    This module provides encodings which support emoji picture characters.

    The first group of encodings uses carriers' private code points as
    Perl's internal string which has UTF-8 flag on.

    KDDI has two version of thier private code points. KDDI(app) is official
    and documented version used in EZappli and character references.
    KDDI(web), on the other hand, is undocumented version but used in UTF-8
    web pages. Use KDDI(web) encoding recommended in most cases.

    SoftBank also has two version of thier emoji representations.
    SoftBank(2G) uses escape sequence style. SoftBank(3G) uses binary
    representations. Use SoftBank(3G) encoding recommended in most cases.

    The second group uses Googles's private code points internaly. This
    means Google's encoding could be the interchange encoding for others.

    The cross-carriers mapping tables are based on emoji4unicode, Emoji for
    Unicode, project on Google Code. See more detail on
    <http://code.google.com/p/emoji4unicode/> about the project.

    The next group also uses Google's.

        Name                        Encoding    Octets Emoji    String Emoji
        --------------------------------------------------------------------
        x-utf8-e4u-unicode          UTF-8       Unicode Std.    Google
        x-utf8-e4u-google           UTF-8       Google          Google
        x-utf8-e4u-mixed            UTF-8       (mixed)         Google
        --------------------------------------------------------------------

    "x-utf8-e4u-unicode" encodes the Unicode 6.0 emojis.

    "x-utf8-e4u-google" does NO translations and exists only for useful.

    "x-utf8-e4u-mixed" accepts all emojis of three mobile carriers mixed. On
    decoding, however, KDDI(app) emojis would be broken as they have
    conflicts with SoftBank emojis. So DO NOT use KDDI(app) with this. On
    encoding, this replaces Google emojis to others definitively. This
    encoding is friendly for Encode::JP::Mobile and MySQL 5.4. Note that
    MySQL before 5.5.3 does not support four bytes UTF-8 including both
    Google and Unicode Standard emojis.

    Tha last group rejects any emojis above. You would use these encodings
    with Encode::JP::Emoji::FB_EMOJI_TEXT fallback functions.

        Name                        Encoding
        --------------------------------------------------------------------
        x-sjis-emoji-none           Shift_JIS
        x-utf8-emoji-none           UTF-8
        x-sjis-e4u-none             Shift_JIS
        x-utf8-e4u-none             UTF-8
        --------------------------------------------------------------------
