UTF-8 support on Windows and Linux2002-04-26 05:21:03Hi All, I am using perl5.6.1 both on Windows 2000 and Mandrake Linux 8.1. On Windows the UTF-8 strings are handled in a reasonable manner, that is length() returns the number of characters and /./ matches a single character. On Linux though, length seems to return the byte length of the string, and /./ fails to match characters over 127. This happens even if I use a UTF-8 locale. How come? What can I do about it? Is anybody experiencing similar problems on Linux? Gregor
