Hi Giuseppe (Is it not way past your bedtime;->),

Here's my result:

> perl utf2tex2.pl < unicode-utf.txt
syntax error at utf2tex2.pl line 9, near ");"
Bareword "A" not allowed while "strict subs" in use at utf2tex2.pl line 11.
Execution of utf2tex2.pl aborted due to compilation errors.

please advise;->

best
Idris
