in thread Adding PerlTk

Thank you Bob !

As expected Tk is not included in the @INC.
perl -le 'print $_ for @INC' /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.0 /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0/i386-linux-thread-multi /usr/lib/perl5/5.8.0

And in this case I have a situation. I need Unicode enabled because I am coding some pages in Vietnamese.

In my own searches I found a few people with the same issue in adding Tk. And I was hoping for a surgical way to add the Tk directory to the search path, but if Unicode is the issue ... then that is a whole new problem.

    You wouldn't typically see the module in the contents of @INC. @INC lists directories where the search for modules start.

    I don;t know whether utf-8 has to be turned off all the time or only during the build process - I think the latter, but judging from Liz's post below, you are better of just going for perl 5.8.1.
