Re: How to parse input file and print without double space

The file is encoded using UCS-2le. You're treating it as if it was encoded using iso-latin-1. Just decode it.

open(my $log_fh, '<:encoding(UCS-2le)', $log_qfn)
   or die("Can't open log file \"$log_qfn\": $!\n");

Many thanks!!! Of course as luck would have it, after posting here i found a site that pointed me in that direction. Everything i'd read up until then had not mentioned ucs2 or utf16. Your post makes it even better. Thanks much!!! K	[reply]
