NAME
       utf8::all - turn on Unicode - all of it

VERSION
       version 0.004

SYNOPSIS
	   use utf8::all; # Turn on UTF-8. All of it.

	   open my $in, '<', 'contains-utf8';  # UTF-8 already turned on here
	   print length 'foo bXr';	       # 7 UTF-8 characters
	   my $utf8_arg = shift @ARGV;	       # @ARGV is UTF-8 too!

DESCRIPTION
       utf8 allows you to write your Perl encoded in UTF-8. That means UTF-8 strings, variable names, and regular expressions. "utf8::all" goes
       further, and makes @ARGV encoded in UTF-8, and filehandles are opened with UTF-8 encoding turned on by default (including STDIN, STDOUT,
       STDERR), and charnames are imported so "N{...}" sequences can be used to compile Unicode characters based on names. If you don't want
       UTF-8 for a particular filehandle, you'll have to set "binmode $filehandle".

       The pragma is lexically-scoped, so you can do the following if you had some reason to:

	   {
	       use utf8::all;
	       open my $out, '>', 'outfile';
	       my $utf8_str = 'foo bXr';
	       print length $utf8_str, "
"; # 7
	       print $out $utf8_str;	     # out as utf8
	   }
	   open my $in, '<', 'outfile';      # in as raw
	   my $text = do { local $/; <$in>};
	   print length $text, "
";	     # 10, not 7!
