[wxperl-users] Unicode

[Peter G. <pe...@pg...>]

Hi.

I have a program written for wxPerl which is meant to display utf8
strings in a wxTextCtrl control. (The utf8 strings are read from file)

1. On Windows, I get illegible garbage.

2. On Fedora 5 with LANG set to en_US.UTF-8 the results are fine.

3. On Fedora 5 with LANG set to C, lines which contain non-Latin letters
are not shown.

Does someone have a solution to display utf correctly on Windows?

And what is the explanation as to why lines containing non-Latin
characters do not display at all with LANG set to C?

Thanks.

Peter
