In that case you'll run into all kinds of encoding problems anyway.

Hi Guys,
Well, this morning I'm inclined to agree that this ought to be the case.
At least for:
$orig = readline($datafile);
$line = decode( 'UTF-8', $orig );
$w = Wx::StaticText-new( ... );
$w-SetLabel($line);
On the other hand I'm reluctant to introduce something that I'm certain

Always use
decode( 'UTF-8', $orig );
'UTF-8' means what it says.

Hi,
Just a clarification.
Setting the font so that you get glyphs displayed properly is only an
issue on Windows XP.
More recent versions of Windows have default GUI fonts that have a much

It would be nice if WxPerl would announce somehow that a font doesn't

Nice to have, but there is no reasonable and practical implementation I
can think of. I am aware of how

Hi,
Comment out the line

you do not need it.

I would guess you are working on Windows?
wxVSCROLL isn't in the list of styles available for wxTextCtrl. It isn't
needed. Remove it and all works OK.
It seems you can get away with it on Linux - but not on Windows.
For the Wx::Font you can just do
my $font = Wx::Font-new( $FontSize},
Hi,
If your Perl scalar contains UTF-8 encoded text and is marked as such,
then you shouldn't need any decoding functions. (Well, that is how it is
supposed to work. If it doesn't, it is a bug).
So, yes - if your scalars contain UTF-8 encoded text and are marked as
such, that's all you

Solution - your conversion of external data should be
my $string = decode($encoding, $binary);
utf8::upgrade($string);
This should be platform independent and work - always. Perl's string

Whenever you bring data from outside Perl into Perl, you should decode
