Are you explicitly setting the page's character set?

Example:
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf8">

Subject: [Templates] charset / character coding / encoding / utf8 /
iso8859-1


Hello list,

I've got a template containing Latin-1 characters (like �, �, �, �) and 
they're getting mangled into what might be the utf8 representation of 
said characters. Or something different.

To give you an example, a line from my template reads:

label.Reset=Zur�cksetzen

This mutates to:

label.Reset=Zurücksetzen

And it shows up like that in my browser. I can correct that situation by 
switching the browser's assumption of the incoming content over to 
utf-8; but that to no avail, since other characters that have not been 
mistreated by the template engine (now, that's only my assumption) now 
show up in the wrong encoding.

And it's all the more confusing to me as my editor (vim) does not 
display those character sequences the same way my browser does.

So my question is: Does anyone know how to tell the Template::Toolkit 
NOT to transform non-ASCII Latin-1 characters to UTF-8?

Thanks a lot!

Michael
