According to Sean M. Burke <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
:Whether "print ord 233" on your terminal prints an e-acute, an ess-tsett, a
:gimel, a "tsu" katakana, a double-dagger, or whether it lasers a hole thru
:your monitor's glass, is a whole different problem.

If very many of the codes result in the 'lasers a hole...' option,
perl's reputation as a 'killer' language will have a whole
new meaning...  Perhaps we will see "Perl Programming for Corporal Punishment"
series of books from the "for Dummies" publishers...
