That's interesting but what I meant was exporting the use pragma after the compilation stage and instead when a specific function is called which is impossible to my knowledge. However I could probably take an option in my constructor like Template->new(UNICODE=>1) and modify Ikegami's my_print to say if ($self->{'UNICODE'}) { utf8::encode( $s ); } and maybe even throw in a binmode on STDOUT in the constructor while I'm at it although it wouldn't help with the FCGI situation. It turns out adding the unicode_strings feature to my Template module didn't work after all so I guess I will need to explicitly encode at some point. Sadly my template module is about a 1000 lines past being an SSCCE but the gist of it is it slurps a file into an array and constructs a hash of arrays which are interpolated then printed based on conditionals being met. I am using :encoding(UTF-8) when I slurp the file so between that and unicode_strings it's a puzzle why that's not enough to have the text encoded and flagged as utf8.
