Are you sure? There's no newline, so make sure you're terminal isn't
putting "aez" before your prompt. Also, are you sure that the input
is what you think it is? What editor are you using, and what version
of windows, what encoding are the characters being saved in when you
write the script to disk? Don't forget, too, that there will be all
sorts of background conversion going on here, both by Windows and by
Perl itself, which will attempt to use locale. Try this on a file
you're sure is encoded in WINDOWS-1250, and open it using :raw. Take
a look at perldoc perllocale.
