I'd downvote my answer, if I could, not only for the shameless plug.

Also your assignment is very low value because it explicitly uses $1 when you could have instead captured the value directly (and safer too).

Providing code for that end might significantly improve this subthread.

perl -le'print map{pack c,($-++?1:13)+ord}split//,ESEL'
