Variables

$Jcode::Unicode::PEDANTIC

Now obsolete and abolished. It used to mean..

When set to non-zero, x-to-unicode conversion becomes pedantic. That is, '\' (chr(0x5c)) is converted to zenkaku backslash and '~" (chr(0x7e)) to JIS-x0212 tilde.

By Default, Jcode::Unicode leaves ascii ([0x00-0x7f]) as it is.

But as of perl 5.8. It has been standarlized (in perl community) that we leave ascii as it is so Jcode no longer has to support this option.
