NAME

       Encode::Byte - Single Byte Encodings

SYNOPSIS

	   use Encode qw/encode decode/;
	   $greek = encode("iso-8859-7", $utf8);  # loads Encode::Byte implicitly
	   $utf8  = decode("iso-8859-7", $greek); # ditto

ABSTRACT

       This module implements various single byte encodings.  For most cases it uses x80-xff (upper half) to map non-ASCII characters.
       Encodings supported are as follows.
