# apple-encodings
Bidirectional, emulator-grade conversion between classic Mac OS text encodings
and Unicode — without linking ICU. The crate owns the canonical Apple tables, so
it stays small, self-contained, and cross-compiles cleanly.
```rust
use apple_encodings::{AppleEncoding, MacRomanRevision};
let enc = AppleEncoding::default(); // Mac OS Roman, post-8.5
assert_eq!(enc.decode(b"Caf\x8e"), "Café");
assert_eq!(enc.encode("Café").unwrap(), b"Caf\x8e");
// Pick by the Finder Info `fdScript` byte:
let enc = AppleEncoding::from_script_code(apple_encodings::SCRIPT_ROMAN).unwrap();
// Revision matters for exactly one byte (0xDB):
let classic = AppleEncoding::MacRoman(MacRomanRevision::Classic);
assert_eq!(classic.decode(&[0xDB]), "¤"); // pre-8.5 currency sign, not €
```
## Status
- **Mac OS Roman** — implemented, both pre- and post-8.5 revisions, decode + encode.
- **Regional single-byte** (Cyrillic, Greek, Turkish, …) and **CJK double-byte**
(Japanese, Big5, GB, Korean) — planned, to be codegen'd from the Unicode
Consortium `VENDORS/APPLE/*.TXT` tables. The double-byte tables will be
feature-gated.
## Scope
Text-encoding conversion only. Unicode normalization concerns (e.g. HFS+'s
NFD-ish decomposition) are deliberately **out of scope** and left to consumers.
## Consumers
Designed to be shared by `ad-decoder`/`adx` and `fsinspect` via path (and later
git) dependency.
