in reply to Re^2: Function to produce formatted ord values of a string
in thread Function to produce formatted ord values of a string

Well, given the sprintf format specification you are using, Unicode is not forseen anyway in your code, but in general: I don't see, why split should be unsafe (it operates on characters, which includes unicode characters), while unpack operates on bytes. Hence, maybe it is unpack which is dangerous, but since I don't have experience with unpack, I leave this question to more knowledgable monks...
