Hello everyone,

could anybody give me a hint how to solve the following problem?

When I try this:

#!/usr/bin/perl
use locale;
$aaa = "...."; # specific lowercase central European character (e.g. with 
special punctuation)
$bbb = uc($aaa);
print "$aaa\n$bbb\n";

the uc function doesn't convert any characters with central European specific 
punctuation (vice versa using lc is with the same problem). Once, when I used 
iso-8859-2 encoding instead, it all worked fine.

Do I do something wrong?

I use Suse 9.2 with perl5 (revision 5 version 8 subversion 5).
LC_ALL = cs_CZ.UTF-8
LANG = cs_CZ.UTF-8

Thanks a lot

J.R.
