Is it possible to pack the chinese characters like,<\br> `pack("A4",$chinese);` [download] the output : ascii junk. i tried the above but that is not giving me the appropriate answer. Any one tell why that happening.	[reply] [d/l]

In Windows 7, this outputs a correct utf8 listing. `open fList, '-\|:encoding(UTF-16LE)', 'cmd /U /C dir /W'; open fOut, '>', 'out.txt'; foreach (<fList>) { utf8::encode($_); print fOut $_; }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
