So perhaps it would make sense to just use this value instead of utf-8, and not worry about examining the actual text (since any such examination is at best a guess, anyway)? Any idea what version of perl started shipping I18N::Langinfo? I couldn't see anything useful from grepping the Changes files. -Peff PS Your 'require' is more simply written as 'use I18N::Langinfo qw(langinfo CODESET)', or perhaps even simpler: perl -MI18N::Langinfo=langinfo,CODESET ... -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
