Thanks for the replies.

I replaced

my @contents = $archive_in->contents($_);
with

my $content_line = $archive_in->contents($_);
my @contents = split(/\n/, $content_line);

and it works like a charm.

I haven't looked at the docs, but have you tried using split to handle it ?

my $contents = $archive_in->contents($_);
s/\000+$//; # just in case there is a null terminator
my @contents = split /\r*\n/, $contents;
