+perl-Unicode-String (experimental Perl Unicode modules)
+
+These are experimental modules to handle various Unicode issues. They
+were made before perl included native UTF8 support.
+
+The current set of modules are:
+ Unicode::String - represent strings of Unicode chars
+ Unicode::CharName - look up character names
+ Unicode::Map8 - mapping tables towards 8-bit char sets
+(the Unicode::Map8 module is distributed separately)
