Change 19185 by jhi@kosh on 2003/04/10 19:06:02 Noted by Nat: -0 didn't work that well with Unicode. ... +If you want to specify any Unicode character, use the hexadecimal +format: C<-0xHHH...>, where the C<H> are valid hexadecimal digits. +(This means that you cannot use the C<-x> with a directory name that +consists of hexadecimal digits.)

    That's very good to know; thanks for finding it.

    How do I submit a change to the perlrun.pod documentation, or tell the proper person about it?
