Some smileys don't appear

2004-08-02 Thread Robin Anson
Batlovers

I created the pshow and dshow QTs to parse the .msl files and show all of
the smileys in them. However I note that there is one smiley that simply
refuses to appear on my system. Neither :-) nor :) produce the
devil.gif icon as they should. The icon is on my system in the right
folder, and all the other icons in the default.msl file appear, but devil
won't.

Does anyone else see the ascii handle instead of the smiley here :-) or
 here :) ?

Further investigation shows that if I create a new handle for the icon,
it will show, providing the handle doesn't include either  or 
(without quotes).

Does anyone else's system exhibit this behaviour?

Appears as ascii text here too.

Yeah, this was a known problem from the first time the smileys came
out when I created a similar guide (albeit much more manual).

It has to do with TB's quoting I believe, but not sure.

 I take it this has something to do with the  appearing within the
 first 21 columns?

It must be more than that, because if you define a new handle with a 
instead of  it still won't show, but a handle without either will.
