hi,
i want to find out if certain characters (german umlaute) are contained
in a string that i work char by char.
my $text = "abc äöü" ;
my $out = "" ;
@chars = split //, $text ;
foreach my $c (@chars) {
# here a condition is needed !
if ( $c eq <umlaut> ) {
$out .= $c ;
}
}
unfortunately the umlaute are represented as two bytes - or whatever is
the correct term here.
i do have the codes for chr(0xXXXX) but don't know what to compare them
against.
is there someone who could spend 3 lines of code. probably some encode
and decode is needed...
thanks a lot !
