Shlomi,
I do agree that the description of the problem was weird. Just to make
it clear once again:
- Langauge specific characters had to be in a plain text file
- Users with no idea about the language type in the UTF-8 hex codes
instead of the special characters instead
- For example 0xC30x85 instead of the Danish character itself
- The advantage of this is that I now can process the file because I
know it is ASCII compliant
- While reading the file line by line, I process them dynamically like
so: s/0x([\d+A-Fa-f]{2})/\\x$1/ge
- All I have to do now is interpret its character chr(hex($var)) and
ensure that my output streams are UTF-8 compliant
