I looked at your data. You'll have to handle the magic number
("\xff\xfe")
at the beginning of the file, and change the input separator string:
#!/usr/bin/perl -w
use strict;
use IO::File;
sub tounicode { my $s = shift; pack('v*', unpack('c*', $s)) }
sub fromunicode { my $s = shift; pack('c*', unpack('v*', $s)) }
my $input = IO::File->new("HelloJava.vjp", "r") or die "Can't open
input: $!";
binmode($input);
$/ = "\x0a\x00";
my $output = IO::File->new("output.vjp", "w") or die "Can't open output:
$!";
binmode($output);
my $magic;
$input->read($magic, 2);
$output->print($magic);
while (my $line = $input->getline())
{
$line = fromunicode($line);
# do processing as normal with Perl here:
# $line =~ s/whatever/whateverelse/;
$output->print(tounicode($line));
}
