[Israel.pm] Hebrew to UTF-8, completely out of ideas!

> Are you sure it's not only in the output? 
Yep, it's both in the output and in the resulting XML file.

I tried but the output stays the same.

TRUE after 'decode'...


Does anyone have a Win2K machine? If you do, can you please run the
following test:
create a share, put a file named 'בדיקה.doc' into it and open the file
accessing it from the share (\\my_comp\sharename\בדיקה.doc).
then run :
$data = `net files`;
and 
print decode('windows-1255', $data), "\n";
What do you see?

Here it looks like "∩┐╜╞עΓא░ΓאפΓא₧.doc".

David.
