+			If this macro is not defined the following

+     FROM_DIRECTION	this macro is supposed to return a value != 0
+			if we convert from the current character set,

+
+     EMIT_SHIFT_TO_INIT	this symbol is optional.  If it is defined it

+			from the current characters.
+     TO_LOOP		likewise for the other direction
+
+     RESET_STATE	in case of an error we must reset the state for
+			the rerun so this macro must be defined for
+			stateful encodings.  It takes an argument which
+			is nonzero when saving.
+
+     RESET_INPUT_BUFFER	If the input character sets allow this the macro
+			can be defined to reset the input buffer pointers
+			to cover only those characters up to the error.
