hotshot has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

hi guys !

How does perl works with languages?
I didn't cross that till now. I was asked to support several langauges, and many things won't work for me without changing them, for example: getting files list (in case I have filenames in chinese for example), or all my regexps that use '\w', as I know '\w' is good only for english.
Anyone can be of assistance?

Thanks.
