Hi Samuel, et al. (I write this response just for completeness)
I loaded the Prettify code that generated an error (the default_options
code) into my Programming Editor, which has a HEX editor function. I
walked through all chars in the code to see if there was any peculiar
ASCii code. There was not. The lowest ASCii char in the code was 20
(i.e. a space) and the highest was 7A (i.e. a z). This means every byte
in the code is (and has always been) within the normal ASCii chars.
P.S. The editor I use is TSE (The Semware Editor) Pro 4.20, see
https://www.semware.com/ for details.
Best regards,
Claus

Hi Samuel
Good points with the "rich" text. I don't know how to locate these.
If Scinotes / Scilab 6.0 is sensitive to this, could it maybe include
a "cleaner" for such stuff?
Best regards,
Claus

Hi there
I've started to use the prettify functions by Pierre Vuillemin. So
far so good in Scilab 5.5
Now I've started to look into Scilab 6 (not least because graphics
is much faster), but I get a weird error.
If I start Scilab, first time I execute the code, I get an "Invalid
buffer." message.
Second time I execute the code then I get a bad message:
--> exec('C:\Users\claus\Documents\Scilab54\z3mfit.sce', -1)
at line 93 of executed file
C:\Users\claus\Documents\Scilab54\z3mfit.sce
'labels_font_size' , 3,...
^^
Error: syntax error, unexpected "'", expecting "," or )
When I run my script, the first thing my code does - it clears all
variables, all graphics and clears console, so it's not "old" stuff
from previous run that is the problem. Or ???
The "line 93" is part of the default options in Prettify, where it
says labels_font_size. It looks like this:
default_options = struct('title_font_size' , 4,...
'labels_font_size' , 3,...
'thicks_font_size' , 2,...
'num_format' , '',...
'leg_font_size' , 3,...
'line_thickness' , 2,...
'xstring_font_size' , 2)
Weird errors sometimes occur after copying/pasting some code from a
rich text formated document to Scinotes or the console. Some usual
characters like the space or quotes may have some special encoding
in formated text, and keep it in Scinotes, but are not aknowledged
by the parser.
The last time i got this situation, it was about spaces that looked
like spaces, but that were not ascii(32). To avoid this, i pasted
the text in a raw text unformated .txt file before copying/pasting
in Scinotes.
If you have copied/pasted some code directly from the web (like
Pierre's Github page), it could be a source of encoding bugs: Web
pages often use unbreakable spaces ( in HTML). I am pretty sure
that Scilab's parser doesn't like them.
