ideally, there would be multiple bytes...
a[n] := $C2AD or a[n] := $C2$AD
Not sure what you want:
a[n] := #$FF; (which equals a[n] := #255)
a[n] := '$FF' (note the single quotes), assuming a[n] is of type String.
yeah, the singles are bad examples... i'm really wanting the multiple byte format to work... i
tried both and was told "expected string but found byte" or "word"... it is for
a translation table... in quoted-printable, everything is equalsXX... the same codes are used in
utf-8... so i thought if i could just copy them directly into my array and then change the equals
to dollar...
i ended up getting it to work by wrapping each piece with chr() but that's
really ugly visually when looking at the code to see the side by side character
and replacement tables...
a[n] := chr($C2)+chr($AD) for two byte codes...
What about a[n] := #$C2#$AD?
