Add such a key via some std GUI registry tool and then see what Win32::TieRegistry returns for it. If you only get some 7-bit value, then try adjusting your "Regional and Language Options". I wasn't able to find very clear documentation on how the A APIs transform values to/from Windows "UNICODE", but the implication seemed to be that the configured language determined how things are mapped. If, instead, only 7-bit characters can be used, then you'll need to use the W calls from Win32API::Registry. - tye	[reply]

Win32::TieRegistry accepts 8-bit strings, as I managed to insert russian word into registry. Win32::Tieregistry accepted it in the 'default' system encoding (cp1251 for me). I am almost sure that the default encoding is implicitly set by selecting locale in Regional options. `s;;Just-me-not-h-Ni-m-P-Ni-lm-I-ar-O-Ni;;tr?IerONim-?HAcker ?d;print`	[reply] [d/l]

I cannot give you more help :) You must determine the encoding your terminal uses and the encoding your French Windows accepts. Nobody can do it for you without sitting at your computer ;) `s;;Just-me-not-h-Ni-m-P-Ni-lm-I-ar-O-Ni;;tr?IerONim-?HAcker ?d;print`	[reply] [d/l]
