So this works. But this does not:

   use strict;

   open F, '>slask.out';
   binmode(F, ':raw:encoding(UTF16-LE):crlf');
   print F "Alfa\nBeta\nGamma\n";

Looking at the file in a binary editor, I see:

  41 00 6C 00 66 00 61 00  0D 0A 00 42 00 65 00 74
  00 61 00 0D 0A 00 47 00  61 00 6D 00 6D 00 61 00
  0D 0A 00

In total 35 bytes. Which is a very odd number for a UTF16 file.
