It's redundant for this code. `$foo` means data that's to be treated as either a single item or as a single item container containing a single item. `$$foo` means put the single item in $foo into a single item container containing it. Given that this appears on the right of `=` the single item

I see no significant difference beyond the inside of your proc and the outside of the code you've shown. The extra `$` in `$$proc` is redundant. (I don't understand why you have it.) The `(...)` is the same as my `: ...`. It can wait until you switch to `slurp`. I wouldn't expect it to make

Re: Malformed UTF-8 ???

2018-10-14 Thread Ralph Mellor
Almost certainly your problem is elsewhere. When you refer to a variable as a *value* then you get its *value*. So: return $ReturnStr returns $ReturnStr's *value*, not the variable. Your code returns such a value, which will be an immutable string. So I think the error message you're getting

Why are you asking about cleaning something up? Is it because you thought `Malformed UTF-8` was an error message? If so, great, because it IS an error message. If not, you need to know that Malformed UTF-8 is an error message and we need to think about how to make that more clear. So that's
