BTW, I just tried replacing the pound sign [35( with unicode [8983( which is apound sign for telephones. This works on the current Pd 0.51how so ?on my machines (win, debian) ASCII code is still wrapped between 0 and 255, like always.
actually no. ASCII is 0..127 by definition. otoh, bytes are 8bit numbers, which cover a range of 0..255.
so sending ASCII 8983 to [list tosymbol] outputs the same result as ASCII 23. (I'm on PD 0.51.2)
you need to convert the unicode codepoint to utf8. for the unicodepoint 8983, the utf-8 sequence is "232 166 131".feeding this sequence to [list tosymbol] will give you "覃" (which is think is what you want).
And yes, I agree it would be great if canvases would allow this character to be displayed correctly.
but they do. since ages. i'm honestly baffled by this discussion. afaik we have a working unicode implementation in Pd for more than 10 years. what's the buzz, tell me what's a-happening... amsdr IOhannes
