The original posted perl line worked fine on my RH8.0 box.
~$ perl -e 'for(0..256) { $s.=chr($_) } for(split(//,$s)) { print }'

Hi Shawn
I'll stick my neck out and say that this is a bug in Perl, to do with
Unicode support. Running the loop from 0..256 gives you 256 8-bit characters
and one 16-bit character (0x0100 = 256). This seems to upset split() as it
stands. Try adding:
use bytes;
at the start of your code, and
;)

Hello all,
Can anyone explain why this fails? I have done a google search for 'Split loop at',
and turned up nothing. If the initial array
stays under 256, all is fine, but anything beyond 255 (as far as I have tested) dies.
Is this something to do with bit size?
%perl -e 'for(0..256) { $s.
