Hi,
Is Ascii sheme changed with new branch?
Couse it shows some wierd signs when try some old number. For example: you can try //echo -s $chr(151) with 7.*
mIRC is now Unicode. That means that any characters that are not valid Unicode won't appear "correctly". However, every character that you might be trying to use is available in Unicode, but may have a different $chr() number. For example, $chr(151) should now be $chr(8212).
This should only affect characters from 129 through 255 if I remember correctly.
So it should be $calc(8212 - $calc(151-129)) and there is start of list. That number corespons to $chr(129) in old mirc, I guess.
You'd have to check to see if the characters are in the same order or not. I have no idea. For example, even thought $chr(151) in ASCII is $chr(8212) in Unicode, that doesn't necessarily mean that $chr(150) in ASCII is $chr(8211) in Unicode. If they are in the same order, then you can use a calculation. If not, then you have to won't be able to use $calc().
