 Unrecognized character %s

 (F) The Perl parser has no idea what to do with the specified character in
your Perl script (or eval).  Perhaps you tried to run a compressed script,
a binary program, or a directory as a Perl program.


You have some bad char in your script.  If you have BBEdit, open up the
script and select to Show Invisibles.  You might see an upside-down red
question mark or something where the bad char is.
