Re: print Unicode characters

Following moritz's advice, I used charnames like this. I hope it gets you going.

#!/usr/bin/perl

use strict;
use charnames ':full';
 
print "\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A}\n",
      "\N{LATIN SMALL LETTER A}\n";

Thanks for the inputs and suggest me if I'm going in right way... `#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use charnames ':full'; print "\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER N}", "\N{DEGREE SIGN}\n";` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I'm not quite sure what you mean by "degree sign". I kept getting a "wide character in print" warning. However, I think that this is what you're after: `#!/usr/bin/perl use strict; use encoding 'utf8'; use charnames ':full'; print "\N{LATIN CAPITAL LETTER N WITH DOT ABOVE}\n";` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

I kept getting a "wide character in print" warning. Add this to your script to get rid of the warning: `binmode STDOUT, ":utf8";` [download]	[reply] [d/l]
