Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting issue with ^B characters in the file Post 302342973 by methyl on Tuesday 11th of August 2009 07:45:33 AM

We are building a collection of unix and MSDOS methods for identifying non-display characters on another post. Once you know what is in that byte it is easier to make a match with sed, grep or whatever.

https://www.unix.com/shell-programmin...scii-code.html

Not clear whether you wanted to lose the whole line containing the unusual character, or just the unusual character.

Beware that text mode FTP will strip the high order bit such that the character can change between unix and MSDOS.

GLGENFRAMEBUFFERS(3G)						  [FIXME: manual]					     GLGENFRAMEBUFFERS(3G)

NAME
glGenFramebuffers - generate framebuffer object names C SPECIFICATION
void glGenFramebuffers(GLsizei n, GLuint *ids); PARAMETERS
n Specifies the number of framebuffer object names to generate. ids Specifies an array in which the generated framebuffer object names are stored. DESCRIPTION
glGenFramebuffers returns n framebuffer object names in ids. There is no guarantee that the names form a contiguous set of integers; however, it is guaranteed that none of the returned names was in use immediately before the call to glGenFramebuffers. Framebuffer object names returned by a call to glGenFramebuffers are not returned by subsequent calls, unless they are first deleted with glDeleteFramebuffers(). The names returned in ids are marked as used, for the purposes of glGenFramebuffers only, but they acquire state and type only when they are first bound. ERRORS
GL_INVALID_VALUE is generated if n is negative. SEE ALSO
glBindFramebuffer(), glDeleteFramebuffers() COPYRIGHT
