Excellent! Thank you. What do you call the $' ' syntax?
Perhaps you could help me with another question.... I have a file on my Windows 98 desktop called "frere_jacques.mp3". I opened charmap, copied the "é", and renamed the file to "frére_jacques.mp3". When I copy the file onto my Unix box via Samba, an ls shows "fr?re_jacques.mp3" and od -cx shows:
I don't understand this result.
Samba (3.0.22) is configured with:
unix charset = UTF8
display charset = UTF8
dos charset = (I've tried ASCII and UTF8)
By the way, the groß file that I created shows as "gro_(black bar)" through Samba. Something is awry...
Hi,
I have some software I need to install on HP-UX 11iv1 64bit but it must not be set up in unicode mode. I know unicode/ ASCII etc. I don't know how to get unix to switch between these. Is there an environment setting for that? I use the Korn shell.
Thanks. (2 Replies)
I have a stream of characters like "\u8BBE\u5907\u7BA1"
and i want to display it.
I tried following things already without any luck.
1) printf("%s",L("\u8BBE\u5907\u7BA1"));
2) printf("%lc",0x8BBE);
3) setlocale followed by fwide followed by wprintf
4) also changed the local manually... (3 Replies)
Here at the agency I work for, a need has arisen for a subdomain that utilizes some unicode characters. It has something to do with our foreign clients getting "page could not be displayed" errors in their internationalized browsers. I am still investigating the issue, but I've been asked to find...

Dear experts,
While developping a C UNICODE application under AIX 5.3, I encountered the following problem, and after days of investigations I still could not find any solution.
Please note that the application is full wchar_t based (not utf8) and that I could compile and run it without any... (4 Replies)
on some distributions UTF-32 is the default and i need to change the size of wchar_t to 2 bytes. i tried to compile it with -fwide-exec-charset=UTF-16 but it didn't help. anyone have any ideas?
thanks,

im starting to go a little serious with c, woking in a personal project that will read a xml, which might contain Unicode characters (i know it will on my system, which is set to es_AR.UTF-8)
im using mxml, and the documentation says it uses utf8 internally (no worries here).
so i need to be... (4 Replies)
I'm trying to figure out how to support Unicode or atleast an unsigned char in the d_name of struct dirent
The problem i'm facing is that I'm checking file names for special characters and obviously the "char d_name" doesn't like it. I'm looping through the directory and getting the file... (3 Replies)
hello
there's some stranges code symbols they looks like this:
\u0438 \u0247. unicode i think
this code can be viewed by javascript so i need it

set_ucodepage
set_ucodepage(3alleg4) Allegro manual set_ucodepage(3alleg4)NAME
set_ucodepage - Sets 8-bit to Unicode conversion tables. Allegro game programming library.
SYNOPSIS
#include <allegro.h>
void set_ucodepage(const unsigned short *table, const unsigned short *extras);
DESCRIPTION
When you select the U_ASCII_CP encoding mode, a set of tables are used to convert between 8-bit characters and their Unicode equivalents.
You can use this function to specify a custom set of mapping tables, which allows you to support different 8-bit codepages.
The `table' parameter points to an array of 256 shorts, which contain the Unicode value for each character in your codepage. The `extras'
parameter, if not NULL, points to a list of mapping pairs, which will be used when reducing Unicode data to your codepage. Each pair con-
sists of a Unicode value, followed by the way it should be represented in your codepage. The list is terminated by a zero Unicode value.
This allows you to create a many->one mapping, where many different Unicode characters can be represented by a single codepage value (eg.
for reducing accented vowels to 7-bit ASCII).
Allegro will use the `table' parameter when it needs to convert an ASCII string to an Unicode string. But when Allegro converts an Unicode
string to ASCII, it will use both parameters. First, it will loop through the `table' parameter looking for an index position pointing at
the Unicode value it is trying to convert (ie. the `table' parameter is also used for reverse matching). If that fails, the `extras' list
is used. If that fails too, Allegro will put the character `^', giving up the conversion.
Note that Allegro comes with a default `table' and `extras' parameters set internally. The default `table' will convert 8-bit characters to
`^'. The default `extras' list reduces Latin-1 and Extended-A characters to 7 bits in a sensible way (eg. an accented vowel will be
reduced to the same vowel without the accent).
