Re^3: The Queensrÿche Situation

"Yes! That fixes the printing problem in my terminal!"

Thats nice. But just to add a little bit confusion., please see this:

A One-Liner prints it out as expected:

karl$ perl -e 'print qq(Queensrÿche\n)'
Queensrÿche
[download]

But please see what happens when i put the stuff into a script (in the same terminal session):

#!/usr/bin/env perl

use strict;
use warnings;

binmode STDOUT, ":utf8";

my $string = qq(Queensrÿche);

print qq($string\n);

my $y_with_trema = qq(\N{LATIN SMALL LETTER Y WITH DIAERESIS});

print qq($y_with_trema\n);

$string = qq(Queensr) . $y_with_trema . qq(che);

print qq($string\n);

__END__

karls-mac-mini:monks karl$ ./roadster001.pl
QueensrÃ¿che
ÿ
Queensrÿche
[download]

Seems like things are getting weird. I wonder when i ever will understand this crap.

N.B.: I came in a bit late and didn't read all the posts yet.

Best regards, Karl

I can actually answer this now :) Take a look below, hopefully that will clear it up. `#!/usr/bin/env perl use strict; use warnings; use Encode; binmode STDOUT, ":utf8"; my $string = qq(Queensrÿche); print qq($string\n); Encode::is_utf8($string)? print " - is utf8\n" : print " - is not utf8 +\n"; use utf8; $string = qq(Queensrÿche); no utf8; print qq($string\n); Encode::is_utf8($string)? print " - is utf8\n" : print " - is not utf8 +\n";` [download] Ouput: `QueensrÃ¿che - is not utf8 Queensrÿche - is utf8` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

"...hopefully that will clear it up." Thank you Rodster001 for your reply. Unfortunately this doesn't explain why the One-Liner prints correctly. But perhaps i got yet another mental block ;-) Best regards, Karl «The Crux of the Biscuit is the Apostrophe»	[reply]
