Re^3: unicode version of readdir

Just as a zen hacking edu-guess, have you tried graff's method with some more win32-ish , like

@datafiles = grep { -f }, readdir( D );
$_ = decode( 'utf16le', $_ ) for ( @datafiles );

I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum

That only works if characters in filenames can be represented by the codepage. All other characters are replaced by question mark. Basically, this code from win32.c: `WideCharToMultiByte(CP_ACP, WC_NO_BEST_FIT_CHARS, + wFindData.cFileName ... )` [download] does the conversion, and CP_ACP is (qoute from MSDN) "the current system Windows ANSI code page".
