Hello, I know this is not specificlly Perl, but I know you folks are very good with regexp.

I am trying to figure out what type of character this is so I can regexp it out of a file.
The file started as a filemake mac, to filemaker win, to export as ascii csv.

I've been dumping it out to a browers to check it out.

In firefox on my PC they look like the male symbol with the circle with the arrow, on my linux box they are a box with
00
0B

And on my mac they display as nothing.

Veiwing the source code they all look like boxes, except for linux, then they look the same as displayed on the browser. When I take the output as text in gvim windows, they are ^K.

Any ideas as to what this is and how I can womp it?

The page to see it is here:

Thanks,
