How to read a file line by line in Russian in perl?

Question

Perl

I try to read the file line by line, everything works fine with English text, but when the file is in Russian... there is a problem.
Are there any features of iterating over the lines of a file in Russian?

Answer 1

Try adding:

# Под виндой
use locale;

# Под *nix
use POSIX qw( locale_h );
setlocale( LC_ALL, "ru_RU.UTF-8" );
