Ok I think I've got this figured out. utf8::decode() does what u want. The
bytes in @bytes represent the constituent octets in "tesuto" in Kana. Using
utf::decode successfully turned the 9 bytes into 3 characters. Let me know
if this gets what u need.
@bytes = split /\|/, "e3|83|86|e3|82|b9|e

Eh, I don't think this is right. I'm mixing up the code point numbers with
the numeric value of the constituent bytes. I'll keep looking though.
