sorting russian text; perl

[Eugene Sevinian <sevinian@crdlx2.yerphi.am>]

Hi all, 
about one month ago there were posting about locale's usage under
perl.  I tried to use it for sorting russian, but it did not work for me.
Is there any additional tricks beside setting LANG=ru_RU; export LANG? I
used /usr/share/keytables/ru.map for inputing some russian text. Hope this
corresponds to koi8 coding. 

Thanks forward,
	Eugene.
