Re^2: BUG: code blocks don't retain literal formatting -- could they?

Yeah, but 1252 doesn't work for most characters -- especially in a unicode perl. As I mentioned, all of the different attempts to display pi by choroba that choroba said didn't work, displayed correctly as pi for me.

But I have my fallback char encoding set to UTF-8, as it works more often (like here). Besides, how can one display pi in 1252? Pi doesn't occur in the 1252 charset AFAIK...

"As I mentioned, all of the different attempts to display pi by choroba that choroba said didn't work, displayed correctly as pi for me." I think there's two problems here. `:-)` I'm pretty sure you're referring to my post (with four attempts), not choroba's (with zero attempts). I did not say they "didn't work"; I said "does* display correctly"* against each attempt. — Ken	[reply]

Oops sorry -- I took not displaying correctly as not working to display the character. I should have said they displayed correctly for me. Does your browser have a UTF-8 fallback mode? I'm using Pale Moon, a 64-bit FF derivative that is more like old-FF then current versions are.	[reply]
