Modern Perl handles utf8 natively. You can do things like:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
open my $fh, ">", "outfile"
or die "Could not open outfile for writing:$!\n";
Does this mean I need to convert the string to utf8 at first then
print it to $fh?
Yes, if your content was written with some other encoding.
Is there a way that I don't need to convert the string by hand?I mean
when printing,perl convert it to utf8 automaticly.
You can let Perl convert it before printing. Example:
use Encode;
Encode::from_to( $string, 'iso-8859-1', 'utf8' );
See "perldoc Encode".
