# Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG::RE(3pm)

Deprecated Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG implemented with regular expressions

## NAME

Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG::RE - Deprecated Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG implemented with regular expressions

## SYNOPSIS

```
    use Encode::Arabic::ArabTeX::ZDMG::RE;
    $string = decode 'arabtex-zdmg-re', $octets;
    $octets = encode 'arabtex-zdmg-re', $string;    # not really implemented
```

## DESCRIPTION

Deprecated method using sequential regular-expression substitutions. Limited in scope over the ArabTeX notation and non-efficient in data processing, still, not requiring the Encode::Mapper module.

Originally, the method helped data typesetting in TeX. It has been modified to produce correct Perl's representation engaging Combining Diacritical Marks from the Unicode Standard, Version 4.0.

### EXPORT

Exports as if `"use Encode"` also appeared in the package.
