in reply to Using pragma utf8::all in processing non-utf data.

utf8::all has no unimport routine, so you cannot disable it with no. Either do not use it when you do not need it, or undo its effects on filehandles:

binmode $fh, ':pop';

    Can't override utf8?
    Does the "use bytes" pragma override utf8?... um... sure hoping so.. have progs that depend on that.
      The question was about utf8::all. utf8 is only one of its many effects.
