Or did you possibly mean the utf8::decode() function?
I mean this:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use warnings;
use strict;
# use utf8;
use Encode;
my $utf8_encoded = "smörgåsbord";
print('is_utf8: ' . (Encode::is_utf8($utf8_encoded) ? 'TRUE' : 'FALSE')
. "\n");
This outputs "FALSE" here, but uncomment "use utf8" and it gets "TRUE".
Looks like with "use utf8" those string literals aren't ordinary byte
strings anymore. Perhaps they are as if Encode::decode had been applied
to them?
