That character was the Arabic comma and to make a long story short
it was due to a nasty, nasty bug :-)  I forgot to pack a character
after unpacking it and it seems newer versions of perl dealt
with the "nastiness" differently.  It should function properly
now.

Thanks for trying the script and keeping me honest :-)
