Since we can't help you, two places to look at to help yourself: Encodings and Unicode (with Perl) Perl Programming wikibook on UTF-8 and Unicode Perl 6 - links to (nearly) everything that is Perl 6.	[reply]

It may sound harsh, but honestly, there's not a lot we can do to help, unless you provide more info. Most useful would be a small, self-contained snippet of code which allows us to replicate the issues you're having. "Self-contained" means that you include some sample input data together with the code, so we don't have to guess what it might be (this is particularly important with encoding issues). Likewise, don't forget to mention what the expected output is.	[reply]

Sounds like you didn't decode your characters on input, and didn't encode your characters on output.	[reply]
