I wasn't aware that we can get the ordinal numbers of characters that
way.
Thanks!
In cases where I am looking for the other way round, getting the
character
from its ordinal number, I intuitively always first try (though to no
avail)
printf "%c%c\n" 95 58
As a workaround I still resort to
$( echo 95P | dc )
$( echo 58P | dc )
Is there a simple *builtin* way for the other way round, get the
character
from its ordinal number? I seem to recall there was, but don't remember.
typeset -i8 c=95
printf "\\${c#*#}\n"
yet another portable? way :
ord ()
{
#echo -n $(( ( 256 + $(printf '%d' "'$1"))%256 ))
printf "%d" "'$1"
}
chr ()
{
printf \\$(($1/64*100+$1%64/8*10+$1%8))
}
well, about ord, don't know while %d quote char works...
