Thanks, but:

...
my $text = "ä \xc3\xa4";
print "text before STDOUT set to UTF-8: ".$text."\n";
binmode(STDOUT, ':encoding(utf8)');
print "text after STDOUT set to UTF-8: ".$text."\n";
utf8::decode($text);
print "text after utf8::decode(\$text): ".$text."\n";
$sth->execute($text, 1) or die $sth->errstr, "\n";

gives:


./utf8.pl
text before STDOUT set to UTF-8: ä
text after STDOUT set to UTF-8: ä ä
text after utf8::decode($text): ä ä
printf "select tstchar25::bytea from dbctest ;\n" | psql -Usisis -dnewsisis
                         tstchar25
