Apologies on unformatted send previously, i hit Enter and the web UI posted, to my chagrin. 1. Examine the Unicode standard''s code page collection for "Latin small letter a with macron". 2. Nets U0100.pdf 3. "Latin small letter a with macron" appears on chart as 0101. This is a hexidemial number which points to U+0101 as its code point. Converting 0101 to decimal

Hi, I am working on a web stie which requires unicode support. I mostly works; I have spent few days on the following issues with no solution so any help is very much appreciated.: 1. I would like to decompose a unicode string into individual characters and then compose it again. I can do first part with mystring.chars[i]. How can I put the string back from such character codes.

When drawing a graph, I'd like the unicode character 'middle dot' (or something else similar to \cdot in latex) to be used when writing numbers. Something like the following works for me: x <- 1:10 y <- runif(length(x)) par(las=1, bty='n') plot(x,y, ylim=c(0,1), yaxt='n') p <- pretty(y) axis(2, at=p, labels=format(p, decimal.mark="\u00B7")) at

This is a hexidemial number which points to U+0101 as its code point. Converting 0101 to decimal gets you 257, this is the same as the HTML entity code. HTML code point is 257. That is &257; gives

Dear helpers, I'm trying to replace a character with a unicode code inside a data frame using gsub(), but unsuccessfully. > data.frame(animals=c("dog","wolf","cat"))->my.data > gsub("o","\u0254",my.data$animals)->my.data$animals > my.data$animals [1] "d??g" "w??lf" "cat" It's not that a data

Colleagues, [R 2.11; OS X] I am processing a file on the fly that contains the following text: XXX?? [email clients may display this differently -- the string is three X's followed by two instances of the letter a with an acute accent] I read the file with: X <- readLines(FILENAME) In this instance, the text of interest is on line 213. When I examine line 213, it reads: XXX\xe1\xe1

R 4.2.3 OS X Colleagues This should be easy -- but not for me. I want to plot text similar to this: N ? XX: YY where XX can be either 1 or 50 and YY is an integer I envision that there would be two solutions: UNICODE: If I can generate "?" via unicode, the problem is solved: mtext(side=3, paste0("N ", UNICODE, " ", XX, ": ", YY)) PLOTMATH:

Hi openssh mailing list, I'm currently running Arch x86_64 with openssh 6.5p1, but the following is also reproduceable on Debian stable (openssh 6.0p1 I believe). Entering unicode characters directly into sftp results in no input. Not a placeholder character or a space, just no input. Here are some relevant details: The machines in my test both have locale correctly set (in this specific

Hello, I read David Wheeler's table proposal[1] for Markdown and very much agree with his conclusion and PostgreSQL-inspired proposed format. I also read the mailing list archives for 2009 but did not find any clear concesus on whether DW's format was officially accepted (I hope it is soon!). However, I want to ask: has anyone considered taking these simple ASCII table drawings to the

I run WBridge5 (French version) under wine-1.1.1 on FreeBSD-7.0. It runs ok except for every UNICODE character is replaced by the little box. Also in some message boxes symbols that obviously should be some French characters that aren't part of normal Latin alphabet are replaced with Chinese characters. How to make UNICODE to display correctly? Thank you, Yuri

Dear helpers, I am not able to export Unicode characters from R. Below is an example where the Unicode character is correctly rendered as long as I am stay within R. When I export it, the character appears only with its basic code, and the same happens when I import it back into R . I'm using R 2.13.1 in Windows XP. > funny.g <- "\u1E21" > funny.g [1] "?" >

In both R and JSON (and many other languages), unicode characters can be escaped using a backslash followed by a lowercase "u" and a 4 digit hex code. However when deparsing a character vector in R on Windows, the non-latin characters get escaped as "<U+" followed by their 4 digit hex code and ">": > x <- "I like \u5BFF\u53F8" > cat(x) I like

Hi everyone, I've noticed new behavior in `regexpr(..., perl = TRUE)` on Windows with R4.0 and above with Unicode characters. Here's a minimal example where I'd expect to see a start value of `5` (as R 3.6.2 and below gives), but R 4.0.0 (and R 4.0.1) now returns: ``` > regexpr("b", "foo\U0001F937bar", perl = TRUE) #> [1] 6 #>
