in thread ucfirst doesn't work if first character of word a special finnish character

Hi! I tried with this, but still it doesn't work. ---------- use locale; use POSIX qw(locale_h); setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'fi_FI'); setlocale(LC_COLLATE, 'fi_FI'); print ucfirst "äbcdef"; ----------- But it prints "-bcdef" i.e "ä" is not being printed correctly. Do I need to do anything else? Thanks.

Hi! Yes, I am directly printing it to STDOUT. Can't I do that? Thanks,	[reply]
