Re: Encoding horridness

Not sure. Hence i don't reply to the OP. I'll praise the lord if i ever fully understand this encoding stuff.

Shouldn't do something like use open IN => ":encoding(iso-8859-1)", OUT => ':utf8'; do the job?

In principle yes, but data could also come from the script (fun) or a database (more fun) or a web page (incredible fun). Reading from a file is the easiest way to acquire data provided that the file only contains one encoding of characters.	[reply]
