<P>WARNING: The implementation of Unicode support in Perl is incomplete.
See <A HREF="../lib/Pod/perlunicode.html">the perlunicode manpage</A> for the exact details.</P>
<P>The <CODE>use bytes</CODE> pragma disables character semantics for the rest of the
lexical scope in which it appears. <CODE>no bytes</CODE> can be used to reverse
the effect of <CODE>use bytes</CODE> within the current lexical scope.</P>
<P>Perl normally assumes character semantics in the presence of
character data (i.e. data that has come from a source that has
been marked as being of a particular character encoding).</P>
<P>To understand the implications and differences between character
semantics and byte semantics, see <A HREF="../lib/Pod/perlunicode.html">the perlunicode manpage</A>.</P>
