Binary reading from stdin

Hi
Is there a way opening '-' (not as filename) or STDIN (already open?) ?

I needed that for opening with ...,"r:binary", because
I tried gsub(/x/,'y') (stdin --> stdout), but I get the error "invalid
byte-sequence", also with -E us-ascii
Is there sg like -E binary?
gsub .../n doesnt help.
Whats the best way to open/process binary input (allowing STDIN) ?

Thank you
Berg

You can use STDIN.binmode
