How do I eliminate TT's "Wide character in print" warning?

Question

I have this warning every time I run my CGI-script (output is rendered by Template::Toolkit): `Wide character in print at /usr/local/lib/perl5/site_perl/5.8.9/mach/Template.pm line 163.` What's the right way to eliminate it? I create the tt object using this config: ``` my %config = ( ENCODING => 'utf8', INCLUDE_PATH => $ENV{TEMPLATES_DIR}, EVAL_PERL => 1, } my $tt = Template->new(\%config); ```

Accepted Answer

Put this before the call to `$tt->process()` to have the output automatically encoded:

```
binmode STDOUT, ':utf8';
```

Edit: As daxim mentioned, it's possible to utilize TT's encoding facilities:

```
$tt->process($infile, $vars, '-', { binmode => ':utf8' })
```

This relies on the widely used convention that the `'-'` filename gives you `STDIN` when it's opened for reading, and `STDOUT` when it's opened for writing.

Edit 2: BTW, the latter way doesn't seem to work for me under mod_perl (2.0.5).
