I want to change character code 160 to character

this right now
s/(.)/ord($1) == '160' ? chr(32) : $1 /eg;
and it works, but I don't like it much.  If anybody
has another way they like better, I'd appreciate
seeing it.  It does not have to be a reg exp.

Anybody know why this doesn't work?
tr/\160/\32/d;
Oddly it replaces 'p' (character code 80) with
character code 26???


This works:

tr/\xA0/\x20/

Apparently that is hexidecimal notation.
