If all you need are the ordinal indicators º and ª, these exist as dedicated
Unicode characters: no HTML needed. I copied/pasted these from the Wikipedia
article on the orginal indicator [1].
There's nothing for longer sequences like "st" or "ora" in Unicode, so if
you want to stick to plain text, you'll need to use something else. In
English, one sees things like 1st or 1^st or 1^{st}.

Editor profile when the character set is "Auto"
Hi When I am composing replies, the Character Set is often shown as "Auto". When this is the case, TB! uses the "Generic" editor profile instead of the one I have set up to be used with all character sets. I know I can work around this by setting the character set in my templates with the %charset macro, or I could edit the Generic profile to be the same as my other profile. But I was wondering is there a way to specify which editor profile to use when the character set is "Auto"? -- Best regards MFPA <mailto:2014-667rhzu3dc-lists-gro...@riseup.net> An obstinate man does not hold opinions.

Hi! I'm using TB! 3.60.07, and am having a problem with character sets. I get e-mail from a particular person in HTML in chinese simplified (gb2312), although it's English correspondence (dunno why he has his e-mail set that way...). I can view the e-mails just fine, but when I reply to his messages, the character set displayed in the editor (microed) is all messed up, squashed together. I can fix this by manually switching to a different character set, but I have to do this each time I respond to an e-mail like this. How do I tell TB! to never use this set? I've unchecked it from the XLAT table in the preferences, but that only seems to serve to not put that font in the character set pull-down menu.

Sometimes replaced by a ?, sometime by a strange squares shape ... And recipient person receive a wrong subject, that is not so good for finding a job... This is very strange, because when I have a look on archive mails, more than 1000, all header with this character are well shown when I launch TB 3.01, and bad shown with 3.5 and 3.5.25 !

Can't View and Print out Chinese Character in HTML Viewer and via printer...
Hi All, I have using The Bat! for few years, and just upgrade it from version 1.42 to version 2.12... After the version upgrade, I can't view the HTML version and even print out message which are in Chinese... But I can view the message in Chinese in Plain Text version... I have try to change the default fonts of the HTML viewer to use Chiense fonts but it still not works.. Besides, I have try all the Kinds of Character set which inside The Bat (including Big5 character set) but none of them works.. The printout of the message which are in Chinese have the same problem... I have try to change to print-out-template to use Chinese Fonts, but also not work... The message body and even the FromName (which is the mail sender's name) if is in Chinese, I can't be printed out correctly. If the open the html file as a attachment which will then launch the browser to view that html document, then all characters are displayed correctly... And means the html document shouldn't contain any problem but Just The Bat! can't read it out correctly in the HTML viewer and can't print it our correctly too..

I cut and paste the text into a couple of text counters that I found online to get that number.

Re: Euro character
Hello Deborah, AltGr is a button which is found on European keyboards where you'd find one of the Alt buttons on North American keyboards. It acts as a second Alt button, allowing you to have a whole extra set of keyboard shortcuts. Actually it basically does the same that Alt+Ctrl keys hit together and the main use is to have 3 characters available on many keys. Take for example the 2 or E keys on a Spanish keyboard: 2 = 2 Shift+2 = AltGr+2 = @ E = e Shift+E = E AltGR+E = Cheers, -- Best regards, Miguel A.

I believe that depends on at least three different things: the keyboard layout, the used font, and the encoding. For example, the mentioned Courier New charset in Windows/Western encoding has the Euro symbol at offset 0x80 (hex). You can get the character by pressing (and holding) ALT, then typing (on the numeric pad, thats important) 0128. However, both the DOS/USA and DOS/Western encoding of the same charset don't have the Euro symbol at that offset.

All the Windows main fonts (arial, TNR, etc.) now have euro symbols, but you may need to update the fonts on your system to get that symbol. IIRC, you can get the update fonts from the Windows Update site. That said, I didn't tell the full story. AltGr+4 gives the euro symbol on my machine, but some need AltGr+e or another combination.

Euro character
Hello All, I use the MicroEd text editor in the BAT and cannot get the Euro symbol. I can get the euro symbol in my text editor (Notetab) or MSWord by pressing Alt-5. I can also get the same in the Window Editor in BAT shown here: ?. but not in plain Text, Microed. I get a rectangular box, regardless what characters I use ( Latin, Central European (Iso or Window etc.). Only if I use the Cyrillic character set I get something else, but not the euro. I can get a number of off-key-characters using Altletter or AltShiftletters but not the euro. Any recommendation, other than use the Window Editor? Sometimes I get an E-mail from a list in both text and html format.

Re: Euro character
Any recommendation, other than use the Window Editor? If you can't get the MicroEd to do it, I'd recommend setting up a quick template with the text .

Character Set Problems
Hello, fellow Bat-lovers. As some of you know, I have a particular interest in using Korean with The Bat! For some time now, I've been aware that my home installation handled Korean differently (better) than the one at work. I've finally decided to try to track down why. Even though I've been running 1.61 in both locations, View | Character Set displays more character sets at home than at work. For example, it has Japanese (not Korean, however). I even installed the latest beta at work to see if I would get the additional character sets, but no such luck. All I have here are Latin-1, Central European (2 entries), Cyrillic (7), and Ukrainian. Can anyone tell me how I can get the missing character sets? I'm sure I installed something in the past that gave them to me, but I just can't remember what 8-(. That might not have anything to do with the problem. It might just be the difference between Windows XP and 2000, for all I know. But it's worth a try. Anything else that could account for the difference between the two locations? -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ...How do you make Windows faster ?

Group in address book and character set
Hello all In my address book I've created a new group and set it to use a special character set, this group is for mass mailing. When I choose one record for a test, The Bat! generated a message to ALL the group's records and not only for the selected one. When I click off the character set setting, all return to normal and only one message was created. Am I doing something wrong ? If It's a bug, can it be confirmed ? TIA.

Re[2]: Character Encoding / Fonts
Hello Dierk, Tuesday, October 30, 2001, 2:52:37 PM, you wrote: DH for the time being you will have to work with either FixedSys or DH another Thai font you may find on the Internet - as long as it is a DH fixed pitch font. Ah yes of course...! I remember fiddling around with fixed-spaced Thai fonts years ago on software which required monospaced fonts. Anyway, I found a fairly good Thai courier replacement which looks pretty good in Latin text as well. I found it at: http://software.thai.net/tis-620/courierthai.html The only minor drawback when displaying English text using this font is that the line spacing is a bit wider, which is something also most of the Thai standard Windows fonts do. (Except for Tahoma which I prefer for that reason) Just like the Fixedsys font however, it doesn't display the Thai vowels which appear above or below the consonant all that well. I guess there is just no way around that; all monospaced fonts of course skip the same space after every character. DH BTW, yours is the first sensible use for proportional fonts in e-mail DH I ever saw ... even if it is only for cosmetic purposes. :-) I loved TB the moment I saw the default font was Courier. :-) When it comes to Thai text, it's more than just cosmetic though; for the occaisional Thai email I can live with odd spaces in the text, however I think a Thai person who is used to perfectly spaced text in Outlook (curses!) would think twice before switching to TB. Fo r exa mple ima gine you r te xt loo ki ng li ke this. That's pretty much the effect when you try to write Thai with Fixedsys and other monospaced Thai fonts.
