in thread Escaping Wide Characters

I have some weird problems with these mappings: On an English Windows XP, the unpack("U*"...) works fine, even with my Perl 5.6.1.

But neither the unpack("U*"...) nor the "map /./gs,..." approach works if I run exactly the same scripts on an English Windows 2003 Server platform, or on a Japanese Windows XP platform. Do you know of any general problems with perl's Unicode handling on these platforms, and do you have an idea how I could solve that?

    Sounds like you're starting with an undecoded string? The function is *not* platform dependent.
