First of all, there's small bug in your code. When you pass content of the file through decoding process (via 'encoding' directive), you get "characters". You should not pass those characters to STDOUT, because by default it expects "octets" instead of "characters". Well, it kinda works if your text contains only English alphabet, but it won't work properly for other characters.
Second, your question is not clear. In the second block of code you use '$currentline', which is also used in the first block, is it the same variable, or different one? Maybe you can provide real block of code that produces problems, then it would be possible to see where you make mistake. Otherwise, as already recommended, try to read 'perldoc Encode'.

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).
