Changes for version 0.9

  • Fixed magic() and default() to work on IO::something objects
  • Fri Nov 28 2003
  • Added a "no warnings" in the default routine to suppress warnings when input is latin2 (thus neither ascii or utf8). Not sure whether this really fixes the problem but it at least ignores it. The problem was reported by Daniel Raska.
