TSE: File: Search/Replace: Character: Hexadecimal: How to replace a
hexadecimal character?
---
Use the notation
\x<the hexadecimal character value you want to replace>
---
---
Method: Manually replacing
---
For example:
I want to replace the ù character (hex 97) by
u instead.
Steps: Overview:
1. -Open TSE
2. -Load the one or more files in which you want to replace
3. -select from menu option <ESCAPE>
4. -Press the 'S' to 'S'earch
5. -Press the 'R' to 'R'eplace
6. -In the text box type the following:
\x97
7. -Press <ENTER>
8. -Press the new string you want to replace with
e.g. type
u
9. -Press <ENTER>
10. -Supply the replace options
e.g. type:
ngax
where
'n' means 'n'ot asking for replace
and 'g' means 'g'lobal, thus in the whole file
and 'a' means 'a'll files that are currently loaded
and 'x' means a regular e'x'pression
---
---
Method: Using a macro and LReplace() or Replace()
---
The general format of LReplace() and Replace() is:
LReplace( <your originalstring>, <your replace string>, <your replace
options> )
---
For example:
I want to programmatically replace the ù character (hex 97) by u
instead.
---
Run for example the following macro:
PROC Main()
LReplace( "\x97", "u", "ngax" )
END
That will replace the hexadecimal character 97 by the character u,
without asking, in all the loaded files (using a regular expression).
