In a perl string, how can I replace a unicode em dash with 2 ascii hyphens? -

-

i first tried find in line using:

    $w = index($line, "\x{2014}");

i got no syntax error, $w never >= 0.

i tried:

    $line =~ s/\x{2014}/--/g;

and didn't work either, ie: no changes made.

what's simplest way make swap?

if explained in prior posts, didn't see where.

works me:

#!/bin/perl -w  use feature 'unicode_strings'; use utf8;  $line = "first — , second"; $line =~ s/\x{2014}/--/g; print("$line\n"); # => first -- , second
