OS: Microsoft Windows XP [Version 5.1.2600]:

/changestr error/

a = "00"X || "abc"

b = a~changestr("00"X, "123")

say b --expected output: 123abc
--actual output: 123abc12
/**/

When the changestr-function replaces a "00"X it appends additionally the replacement minus one character at the end of the modified string. In the previous example, it adds the string “12” at the end.
