JSON's encode() function would create a UTF8 text string out of the shared hash, so I just decoded() it back into an (unshared) HREF, and then I just stored that. `my $encoded = JSON::XS->new->utf8->encode( $HREF ); my $decoded = JSON::XS->new->utf8->decode( $encoded ); store $decoded, $filename1;` [download] or I could just slap it all into one statement: `store(JSON::XS->new->utf8->decode( JSON::XS->new->utf8->encode( $HREF ) ), $filename1);` [download] and all is well in the universe again!

Well, I was suggesting you could use JSON instead of Storable — they're both tools to serialise data structures — but that works too :)	[reply]

I've read YAML was the way to go, but the Dump() interface would just push out ASCII text. I did another check and it appears the YAML::XS might generate the binary for me. Thanks for the suggestions! I'll report back after trying it out.	[reply]
