jgoff@Demeisen:~$ perl6 -v This is Rakudo version 2015.12-152-gd7f3f0b built on MoarVM version 2015.12-29-g8079ca5 implementing Perl 6.c. The following is a simple script that changes newlines to their control picture equivalent, or at least it should: --cut here-- my $str = "foo\nbar"; $str ~~ s:g/\n/\c[2424]/; say $str; --cut here-- And here's the output: --cut here-- jgoff@Demeisen:~$ perl6 -I. bug.txt | hexdump -C 00000000 66 6f 6f e0 a5 b8 62 61 72 0a |foo...bar.| 0000000a --cut here-- The s/// statement turns newlines into E0 A5 B8, which is U+0978 DEVANAGARI LETTER MARWARI DDA and not E2 90 A4, which is U+2424 SYMBOL FOR NEWLINE. The 0A at the end of the string is unaffected, as it should be.
