DESCRIPTION

      This software is "Yet Another JPerl" written by Perl.
      We can write Perl scripts in ShiftJIS, without UTF8 flag, again.

      This "JPerl" means "Japanized Perl" or "Japanese Perl".
      So is unrelated to Mr. Patrick E. Martin's JPerl -- Perl 5 implemented in Java.
      And is unrelated to Mr. Ben Evans's jPerl -- Perl on the JVM, too.

      This software is a beta3 version for final public comment.
