Keeping Unicode characters together when splitting a string into characters

• awk

  34 1,923 8.3 C

  One true awk

I'm not sure if there's a better way to do this, but I wanted to be able to split a string into its constituent characters while keeping unicode characters together. However One True Awk doesn't have any support for Unicode or UTF-8. So I threw together this little fragment of awk script to reassemble the results of split(s, a, //) into unbroken Unicode bytes.
