Was it not someone asking for some help with a perl script?  anyway
am3yw88 at ask.com, "perldoc -f unpack" and look up the bit about
unpack("%32C*",...). HTH.


BTW -- re: the vim question -- it's a termcap setting. Can't remember
which one, but you can cp the termcap/terminfo databases to $HOME, export
TERMCAP=~/.termcap, and change the settings in that to your hearts
content; I think the ti/te resources do it.

Actually, Colm's suggestion (use titeinhibit) is better. ;)
