I'm not sure, but those could be utf-8 chars, did you try to convert from
utf8?
function revText theText
return unidecode(uniencode(theText,"utf8"))
end revText

does anybody know how to convert the Caps-Lock key
to a Shift-Lock key?

I have written this code a few different ways. Each seems to be
equally inefficient. I am attempting to compare to images, pixel by
pixel, and record the differences.
ON mouseUp pMouseBtnNo
put 0 into c
set the startvalue of scrollbar Progress to 0
set the endvalue of scrollbar Progress to the length of imagedata
of image "Alpha"
put the imagedata of image "Alpha" into idataalpha
put the imagedata of image "Beta" into idatabeta
REPEAT FOR each char myChar in idataalpha
set the thumbposition of scrollbar Progress to c
IF myChar is not char (c) of idatabeta THEN
put c && char (c) of idatabeta & return after hAll
END IF
put c+1 into c
END repeat
put hAll into field "diff"
END mouseUp
It takes many minutes to process a 200x200 image. I want this code to
eventually compare full screen-captures, so if there is any way to
speed it up, I am open for advice.
Thanks
Bert

Bill:
Be my guest. We've already spent dozens of hours trying to work around this.
Wow. This took several minutes:
<http://imp.on-rev.com/webinars/index.html>
Plays on iPods too. (And Zunes. And anything else that plays H.264.)
The GoToWebinar software we use for our webinars records *only* in WMV -
So I can suggest you use something without that serious limitation?
file size ... loss in quality
My priority would be compatibility, especially since it's a web-inar. (BTW,
Web <> Windows.)
Note also that you said you prefer mp4, as if this were a universal format.
It is, for all intents and purposes. It's the new MPG-1. It is not owned by
Microsoft, and it is not owned by Apple or any other OS vendor. Lots of
people on the web think that's important.
But most Windows users cannot view that format, without having QuickTime or
other additional software installed
Software has to be "installed" to do anything on a computer. The Rev 4
plug-in will have to be installed, for example.
So, if you've got an idea that doesn't have these downsides, let me know.
Your own "upsides" require Mac users to install technology that has been
officially discontinued for them by Microsoft, in addition to the problem of
OS vendor ownership of the video format. And I thought QT, which natively
supports but does not own mp4, was necessary for Revolution video on Windows
anyway.
I admit I'm perhaps overly sensitive to video formats on the web, as well as
the continuous onslaught of (clumsy and technologically inferior)
Windows-only lock-ins masquerading as "solutions" on the internet. I do
understand that there are trade-offs among compatibility, efficiency,
practicality and commerce, but this particular trade-off didn't seem
necessary to me.
Thanks,
m

Take out the progress bar and then see how it does. Setting a progress
indicator on every repeat often takes longer than running the entire
rest of the handler.
If you do need a progress bar, only update it occasionally; for example,
every few hundred iterations:
if c mod 500 = 0 then set the thumbpos of sb "progress" to c
