Hello All,
I created a simple text file and saved it once in asci format and one more time in unicode format.
now when I run this simple program
#!/usr/bin/perl
open MYFILE1, "c:\\junk\\file-ansi.txt" or die;
open MYFILE2, "c:\\junk\\file-unicode.txt" or die;
print "going to print the asci file\n";
print "------------------------------------------- \n";
while (<MYFILE1>)
{
print "$_";
}
print "\n\ngoing to print the unicode file\n";
print "------------------------------------------- \n";
while (<MYFILE2>)
{
print "$_";
}
close MYFILE1;
close MYFILE2;
I see the following output.
going to print the asci file
-------------------------------------------
my
name
is
abhishek
going to print the unicode file
-------------------------------------------
■m y
n a m e
i s
a b h i s h e k
Why is the unicode file not being read correctly (multi byte?) and how to make the output correct for the unicode file as well (so that it appears, just like the way the asci output is appearing?)
regards,
Abhishek.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

are good places to start.
