Still not following.   You are talking about Catalyst::View::TT?


BTW -- when looking at C::V::TT I see where you got that DEFAULT_ENCODING
from -- it's documented in C::V::TT.

As far as I know there's no such setting in Template Toolkit.  There's
"ENCODING" to specify the encoding of your templates.

If your templates are 8859-1 with 8 bit characters my suggestion would be to
convert them to utf-8 and set ENCODING to utf8 for the templates, and move
toward utf8 everywhere.    Make sure you use the plugin to decode and
encode.
