Re^2: Strings with umlauts and such

When reading up on unicode I came across something I took as a warning not to use "use UTF-8". So I did not. The remark about using utf-8 in the code did confuse me: using Kühne in a string is using utf-8 in the code?

Must give your suggetion to take Azure out of the equating some thought, not really sure how to go about that.

using Kühne in a string is using utf-8 in the code? It is, if it is written with utf-8 encoding. `use utf8;` tells perl that your source code includes literal utf-8 characters. If you don't include that but insert literal utf-8 characters in your code, all manner of bad things will ensue. See utf8. There is almost no reason not to `use uft8;` in all your code these days. 🦛	[reply] [d/l] [select]
