Hi!
In Lua hex-escaping like "\x5e" doesn't work.
>From Lua manual:
> A character in a string can also be specified by its numerical value using the escape sequence \ddd, where ddd is a sequence of up to three decimal digits. (Note that if a numerical escape is to be followed by a digit, it must be expressed using exactly three digits.)
Replace "\x5e\xc9\xc3" with "^\201\195"
