TRON (encoding)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

TRON is a multi-byte character encoding. It is similar to Unicode but does not use Unicode's Han unification process: each character from each CJK character set is encoded separately, including archaic and historical equivalents of modern characters. This means that Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text can be mixed without any ambiguity as to the exact form of the characters; however, it also means that characters with equivalent semantics may be encoded more than once, complicating some operations.
