Has ANYONE solved how to maintain the euro symbol in a cross-platform stack?

numtochar (Win 128|Mac 219) is platform-specific, and htmltext "¤" is
Mac-only.

The Unicode standard for the Euro symbol is HEX 20AC / Decimal 8364.

Open a new mainstack with a field (let's call it "KODE")

and a second field (let's call it "DEKODE")

and a button . . . with this script:

on mouseUp
  set the useUnicode to true
  put fld "KODE" into KODE
  set the unicodeText of fld "DEKODE" to numToChar(KODE)
end mouseUp

enter 8364 into field "KODE" and click the button . . . magic was never so easy :)

and cross-platform at that!

[remember, when in doubt just reach for Unicode:
