Instead, use named values. The syntax is less compact, but dramatically more readable. $str = "\x7F\x06\x22Z"; # not ok use charnames ':full'; $str = "\N{DELETE}\N{ACKNOWLEDGE}\N{CANCEL}Z"; # ok =head1 CONFIGURATION This Policy is not configurable except for the standard options. =head1 AUTHOR Chris Dolan =head1 COPYRIGHT Copyright (c) 2006-2011 Chris Dolan.
