It seems that my recent patch helps here, somehwta: $ ./perl -Ilib -e 'use encoding "ISO-8859-2"; use open ":encoding(ISO-8859-2)"; print ord($ARGV[0]), chr(260), $ARGV[0], "\n"' Ą Wide character in print at -e line 1. 260Ä Ą (Sorry about linewrap, my MUA insists...) -- Jarkko Hietaniemi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.iki.fi/jhi/ "There is this special biologist word we use for 'stable'.
