Details:

it is annoying to use unicode from perl scripts because the weechat api
presents everything as byte[]

here's a sample script demonstrating the problem:


weechat::register('utf8', 'Nei <anti.teamidiot.de>', '0.0', 'GPL3', 'demo utf8
bug in perl api (/utf8a and /utf8b)', '', '') || return;
weechat::hook_command('utf8a', 'bug visible when error prefix is set to
unicode char', '', '', '', 'utf8a_cmd', '');
weechat::hook_command('utf8b', 'bug visible when argument is unicode char',
'[text]', '', '', 'utf8b_cmd', '');

sub utf8a_cmd {
        weechat::print('', weechat::prefix('error')."bug when prefix_error is
unicode: x{4f60}x{597d} (hello in chinese)");
        weechat::WEECHAT_RC_OK
}

sub utf8b_cmd {
        weechat::print('', "bug when argument is unicode: x{4f60}x{597d} (hello 
in
chinese). your argument was:".$_[2]);
        weechat::WEECHAT_RC_OK
}
