dear monks,
consider a path named d:\\directory1\\

contains the list of directories , some directory contains english letters and some contains chinese letters.
if i use the following program to list the sub directories, it is not giving the directory with chinese letters.
open output,">:utf8","D:\\directory1\\output.doc" or die "Couldn't ope
+n STDOUT: $!";
opendir DIR,"D:/directory1" or print " \ncould not open the directory 
+: $!";
print OUTPUT "\nreading the list from the directory\n";

while ($list=readdir DIR)
{
 if(-d $list)
     {
     print OUTPUT "$list\n";
    }
}

it not even recognise the chinese directory . And the output is 
.
..

both thes directories contains only english letters. But the directories containing chinese letters is not displayed in that output file.
