Hi,
Having $VAR1 = ["\x{e0} pr\x{e9}sent prot\x{e9}g\x{e9}"] or $VAR1 =
["\x{e0} pr\x{e9}sent prot\x{e9}g\x{e9}login774"];
is really what you were expecting, i.e. true latin1 one byte characters. (it
appears that your dump shows the hexa code of non ASCII chars, i.e. with hex
code above \x{a0}, but that's the same).
On the other hand, it appears that when you are not doing "use UTF8", then,
everytime you are handling a string, it is turned into UTF8, like your "[no
utf8]" section shows. (perhaps because your source code is written in UTF8?)
I don't know why, but anyway, it appears that [use uft8] solves your
problem.
Lionel.

The accents are no more printed correctly !!
Hm. So it seems that Perl changes its notion of string encoding when
modifying it. Curious.
Your source seems to be UTF-8. Have you tried to invoke the pragma "use
utf-8"?
Here you can see the results when I use pragma utf8 :
[use utf8]
$VAR1 = [
"\x{e0} pr\x{e9}sent prot\x{e9}g\x{e9}"
];
$VAR1 = [
"\x{e0} pr\x{e9}sent prot\x{e9}g\x{e9}login774"
];
[no utf8]
$VAR1 = [
'à présent protégé'
];
$VAR1 = [
"\x{c3}\x{a0} pr\x{c3}\x{a9}sent
prot\x{c3}\x{a9}g\x{c3}\x{a9}login774"
];
It's really weird, isn't it ???
