  Don't do that, it's buggy. http://stackoverflow.com/questions/492838#493508 [stackoverflow.com]

  What are you trying to achieve? The Encode module is enough for most cases. Read the first two of http://p3rl.org/UNI [p3rl.org].

    The truth is that I tried to not use the encoding pragma. I do not like it as well. I prefer to binmode file handles and normally that works.

    But with CGIs I get some problems. First, I am not able to binmode Template Toolkit when it opens templates. Or at least I can't find documentation on that.

    The other problem is how to control the encoding from the environment variables, from CGI param and other stuff like that. But for these I think my current solution uses Encode already.

    I'll fight with this script la

      my $tt = Template->new({ENCODING => 'utf8',})

      Documented in http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Template::FAQ#Why_do_I_get_rubbish_for_my_utf-8_t emplates? [cpan.org].

      $tt->process($infile, $vars, $outfile, {binmode => ':utf8'},)

        Encode seems to have problems by itself.

        Can't locate object method "renewed" via package "Encode::utf8" at /usr/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.10.0/Encode.pm line 174. ,

        And this happens from time to time... :-(
