Hey Tom,


yea, some folks are starting to use uni chars consisting of 2 bytes
instead of one.  i need to look it up, but there are some flags that need
to be in the decoder and they only work with newer versions of perl. so
shut it down until i figure it out. i would keep tabs on the other perl
decoders cuz they could have the same problem.

thanks,
robb...
