How to RTFM
perldoc perldiag
(W utf8) Perl met a wide character (>255) when it wasn't expecting
one. This warning is by default on for I/O (like print). The easiest
way to quiet this warning is simply to add the :utf8 layer to the
output, e.g. binmode STDOUT, ':utf8'. Another way to turn off the
warning is to add no warnings 'utf8'; but that is often closer to
cheating. In general, you are supposed to explicitly mark the
filehandle with an encoding, see the open manpage and binmode in the perlfunc manpage.

It would be useful to include a working snippet of your code that is causing you problems.
