[tpm] POD encoding question

[Madison Kelly]

Hi all,

   I'm having trouble with UTF-8 characters in my module's POD. I've got
the entry (truncated for brevity):

=item new

=encoding UTF-8

   #-----
   use TB::Get;

   # Get a handle on the TB::HumanReadable methods.
   my $hr=TB::Get->new;

   # You can set (...) as a hash reference. Ie:
   my $hr=TB::Get->new({
   	use_base_2	=>	0,
   	use_24h		=>	0,
   	say_am		=>	"午前",
   	say_pm		=>	"午後",
   	date_seperator	=>	"/",
   	time_seperator	=>	"."
   });
    #-----

This is the constructor method used to access this module's methods.

=cut

   Now, when I try to read the POD using perldoc, I get:

        new
           #-----
           use TB::Get;

           # Get a handle on the TB::HumanReadable methods.
           my $hr=TB::Get->new;

           # You can set (...) as a hash reference. Ie:
           my $hr=TB::Get->new({
                 use_base_2      =>      0,
                 use_24h         =>      0,
                 say_am          =>      "åå",
                 say_pm          =>      "åå¾",
                 date_seperator  =>      "/",
                 time_seperator  =>      "."
           });
-=-=-=-=-=-

   At the command line, I get:

$ perldoc TB/Get
./TB/Get.pm:73: Unknown command paragraph "=encoding utf8"
<standard input>:222: warning: can't find numbered character 141
<standard input>:222: warning: can't find numbered character 141
<standard input>:223: warning: can't find numbered character 141
<standard input>:223: warning: can't find numbered character 140

   Now, the '=encoding utf8' string is taken directly from the 'perldoc
perlpod' documentation...

   Any tips on what I am doing wrong?

Thanks!
