The char 0x9F or 0237 is the second byte of the utf8 encoding for ß
They aren't 2 characters - they're the same character:
#!/usr/local/bin/perl5.6.0
use warnings;
use strict;
my $utf8 = "\x{DF}\x{100}";
chop $utf8;
my $byte = "\xDF";
if ($utf8 eq $byte) {
printf "Yes\n";
} else {
print "No\n";
printf "%d byte of %d, %b byte of %d\n", length $utf8, ord $utf8,
length $byte, ord $byte;
}
print "utf8 is $utf8\n";
print "byte is $byte\n";
__END__
I run that through less to show the unprintable character as <9F> and for
perl5.6.0 I see:
No
1 byte of 223, 1 byte of 223
utf8 is Ã<9F>
byte is ß
With perl5.6.1 I see:
Yes
utf8 is Ã<9F>
byte is ß
because perl5.6.1, er, doesn't grok printing utf8. That's why I feel that
finishing 5.8 is important.
