# Program for testing regular expressions with perl to check that PCRE handles
# them the same. This is the version that supports /8 for UTF-8 testing. As it
# stands, it requires at least Perl 5.8 for UTF-8 support. However, it needs to
# have "use utf8" at the start for running the UTF-8 tests, but *not* for the
# other tests. The only way I've found for doing this is to cat this line in
# explicitly in the RunPerlTest script.

# use locale;  # With this included, \x0b matches \s!

# Function for turning a string into a string of printing chars. There are
# currently problems with UTF-8 strings; this fudges round them.
