After the internationalization talk got me fired up...
At first I tried printing out a variable with greek text in it
SET FOO="ÎÎÎÎÎÎÎÎ" <-if that doesn't show up in your browser trust me it
is Greek (iso-8859-7)
WRITE FOO
and I get greek :)
WRITE $ASCII(FOO)
and I get 206 no matter what the first character in FOO is
WRITE $CHAR(210)
gives me a block
and vista gives me control character errors so ...
I decided to try the pattable stuff that I was told about
I read from pages 40 to 43 in the GTM unix programmers guide and tried
to set up my own pattern table
I set up my environment variables
gtm_pattern_file=/blah/blah/pattern (which is the pattern file)
gtm_pattern_table=GREEK
then I have the following as my pattern file
---------------------------------------------------------
PATSTART

210,211,212,213,214,215,216,217,218
PATEND
;it says that there is a syntax error on PATEND
---------------------------------------------------------
I run vista
I enter VIEW "PATLOAD":"pattern" and get the following error
GTM>VIEW "PATLOAD":"pattern"Cannot load table GREEK twice
%GTM-E-PATTABSYNTAX, Error in pattern at line 24
GTM>VIEW "PATCODE":"GREEK"
GTM>
----------------------------------------------------
I am sure it is something simple but my eyes have gone all blurry.
Thanks!
