On a similar note: How do people feel about code which turns off the "my source encoding is UTF-8" pragma after having previously turned it on? I.e. use utf8; my $café = "Ĉu vi havas sandviĉojn?"; no utf8; If we disallow this kind of thing, we can remove further weird cornercases from the parser, because a bunch of unlikely situations no longer come up. As with VERSION: Are there any actually-valid use-cases for doing this kind of thing? -- Paul "LeoNerd" Evans leonerd@leonerd.org.uk | https://metacpan.org/author/PEVANS http://www.leonerd.org.uk/ | https://www.tindie.com/stores/leonerd/Thread Next
