Hi to all,
I am having lot of trouble in analyzing a piece of text in
Polish. I want to read all words of a text, and count them.
OK, what you normally do is to set up pattern matching
using something like \w. That does not work, it leaves the
special Polish letters kind of the strange l and friends out.
Next approach,
use POSIX qw(locale_h) ;
setlocale(LC_ALL,"Polish_Poland") or die "Could not set locale";
that runs, does not complain, but, same effect as before.
I am running the activestate distro un WinXP.
Thx a lot for every hint
Reinhard
