Re: [M100] Conversion of Tandy Model T characters after PC file transfer...

If you could do a conversion on a *nix box, the conversion would be quite simple: sed -i -e 's/^/ñ/' \ -e 's/&/æ/' \ -e 's///' \ & etc. I just grabbed a couple of characters at random for this example. On Sun, Nov 15, 2015 at 9:31 PM, John R. Hogerhuis wrote: > FWIW the origi

FWIW the original mapping that was created for the UTF-8 decoder was limited to characters available in 16-bit Unicode for efficiency reasons in HTERM. Getting marginally better representations of the couple of oddball characters weren't worth extra complexity. So the original mapping included char

Maybe the website owner can change Bitchin to something more appropriate. Having the word bitch as part of a website name is lack of taste. Maybe some ISP do not or will not access this website page. I do not know. Just my opinion only. From: John Gardner To: Model 100 Discussion Subject: "bit

I've made a spreadsheet of the Unicode character conversions contained within the HTERM source file as a basis for what I need: http://wickensonline.co.uk/static/files/tandy/Tandy%20Model%20T%20Code%20to%20Unicode%20v1.1.pdf Great work on this - it's certainly saved me some time moving forward!

Hi Russ I've made a start - the biggest time waster for me will be to find the most suitable equivalent Unicode character, but I'm already some way down the road. The actual conversion process I have code for already - and in fact the mechanism I use is really quite neat (for me anyway)! The

IF you're serious and patient about this, we might be able to help. Thirty years ago we needed to translate TRS-ASCII code to standard ASCII to post on bulletin boards for the newsrooms. But it will take some time to find that stuff. As I recall it amounts to a tedious series of IF - THEN st

Hi I noticed that there are some partial unicode mappings for the Tandy-specific characters on the following page: http://bitchin100.com/wiki/index.php?title=Unicode_Mappings I think it would be quite nice to be able to transfer files to a PC and have (as close as possible) the full Tandy charact
