this is quite comment because perldoc respects your locale so depends on 
your locale setting, it might come out one way or the other. first try to 
find out what LANG you are locale is set to:

[panda]# env | grep LANG
LANG=en_US.UTF-8

which by default uses the UTF8 character set in my box. if you set it to:

[panda]# export LANG=en_US

perldoc should come out prettier. Windows users normally do not have to 
worry about this. some distribution of linux, especially those from RH, 
might need to.
