Right. I found a hack on https://perldoc.perl.org/perlunicode ( which
you directed me to ) that appears to have fixed *this* particular
issue ( though it's not clear what I've then broken as a result )
Calling:
Encode::_utf8_on($_)
... for every value just prior to being pushed into the model

In the case of your example script, you need 'use utf8;' in the preamble. This
fixes handling of the hard-coded unicode characters in the script -- it won't
necessarily fix the issue with the strings coming from your database. Are you
certain they are being stored in the database correctly?
Hi all. I'm seeing some strings ( coming from a database ) corrupted
when I insert into a liststore model. I've pasted a bare-bones script
before which demonstrates the issue ( hard-coded string value in this
case ). Any ideas what's happening and how to get the original string
rendering?
