Well, I know of one method and that is XML::Parser.
Version 2.29 (correct me, if I'm wrong) will read
unicode properly into perl scalars.
So you might have to put a
<doc>
...your japanese text
</doc>
envelope around it?

Subject: Japanese, Unicode, Perl... oh my!
With the addition of unicode support in Perl 5.6.0, I was hoping
to be able to
use some existing perl scripts (with minor modifications) on
Japanese text.
However, man perl-unicode explains that Perl can't read utf8 encoded text
files. So the question is,
How does one get utf8 text into Perl 5.6 strings?
