<fsergot> what to do if slurp gives "malformed utf8 string"? :) <tadzik> look twice at your file :) <huf> iconv and check where it breaks;) <fsergot> great! thanks :) <fsergot> huf++ <fsergot> tadzik++ <fsergot> it works! :) <masak> maybe we should give a more informative error message when file input chokes on some non-UTF-8. <fsergot> would be great :) <fsergot> maybe line number? :) <masak> the only reason there isn't already a line number is that it's an error emitted by Parrot. <masak> we should catch it and re-package it. * masak submits rakudobug
