in reply to Re^3: How do I use the "File::ReadBackwards" and open in "Unicode text, UTF-32, little-endian" mode
in thread How do I use the "File::ReadBackwards" and open in "Unicode text, UTF-32, little-endian" mode

File::ReadBackwards wouldn't work for me on Windows until I added two extra arguments: 
File::ReadBackwards->new($file,"\015\012",false);

[download]
After that it started working as expected, which is odd, because it appears to set that as the default for Windows in the .pm.
