`use strict; use Tk; my $mw = MainWindow->new(); $mw->Button( -text => 'Hola compañero!' )->pack; MainLoop;` [download] Works for me™. What encoding are you using? Codepoint `\x{a4}` will display as an n-tilde in a Windows `cmd` prompt, but in utf8 and `Tk`, it's a generic currency sign. Codepoint `\x{f1}` is the 'proper' Tk/utf8 n-tilde, but will display as a plus/minus sign in `cmd`.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

A complete guess: the font you're using doesn't implement Spanish chars. What platform are you running on, and what font are you using? Caution: Contents may have been coded under pressure.	[reply]
