Subject: decr not happening properly
problem ------- "decr" is not decrypting properly. Environment ----------- OS:Red hat linux 8 (Linux abcdef 2.4.20-8 #1 Thu Mar 13 17:54:28 EST 2003 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux) gcc version 3.2.2 perl module ----------- Filter-1.30 Test case --------- tested with the following lines in a file #!/usr/bin/perl -w # This is my first perl program print ("\a\a\aMy first program\n\a\a\a"); print "\x36\x34"; print "\uwas\uwaldo is \x34\x years old."; print "dir x1.pl"; output ------ I am getting the following out put after encrypting and decrypting the above lines. #!/usr/bin/perl -w first perl program <==== The line truncated here. print ("\a\a\aMy first program\n\a\a\a"); print "\x36\x34"; print "\uwas\uwaldo is \x34\x years old."; print "dir x1.pl"; Problem with "decr" script ------------------------ The "decr" always fails at the following line. (print "skipping file '$file': not encrypted\n"), next unless $f eq $Fingerprint ; The $f and $Fingerprint not equal at all, so I modifyed "eq" to "ne" and I am getting the above problem. Any pointers are of great help. Please let me know if you need any further info. Thanks Ravi
Hi I have a recent Redhat myself and it works fine. Are you running a non ASCII locale by any chance? Paul
