Re^2: UU-decode unpack of empty string yields undefined value

...as I do a lot of unicode handling in my code

Just to avoid confusion: uuencoding has nothing directly to do with Unicode.

Note the difference between upper and lower case U. From pack:

               u   A uuencoded string.
               U   A Unicode character number.  Encodes to UTF-8 inter
+nally
                   (or UTF-EBCDIC in EBCDIC platforms).
