nice perl script :-)
I don't get the warning when the script is run from bash
what context did you run the script from?
I suspect your source is UTF with a BOM tag. I created a file with
this and got your exact results. UTF is OK as long as it doesn't have
the BOM tag.
Wow, yes.
You are absolutely correct. I opened the script in vim and :set nobomb and
the script now executes properly without the annoying noise. I needed the
bomb for something to do with perl developing (it was a while ago), but
I'll have to remember to set vim up so that it doesn't do that on scripts.
Thank you VERY much and have a Happy New Year.
Running `file` is your friend - it tells you what junk may be in a file.
Running `d2u -i ...` gives more info, then 'd2u -e -f -r ...` fixes most issues.
Happy New Year and have a great 2026!
