Yeah, I knew that, and have used it for this in the past... but my brain, I think, has become clouded by extensive use of "perl -I lib t/file.t |& xxd" for this sort of testing, which is pretty silly, I guess. What I should really do is make a little wrapper so that I can toggle between "is" and "is_string" and "is_binary" automatically based on environment variables or compared data. -- rjbs
