ok, then i totally agree with you, the tricky part being /can unicode strings be integrated into a .pd (text file) relatively simply even if not directly editable with usual text editors? / after all, unicode characters can be represented by escape codes
(ascii characters preceded by ), isnt' it?by the way i would be interested to know how many people are editing their patchs without the patch/cord gui and for what reasons? for my part, i do it very seldom, only when i need to correct a patch that cannot be opened any more.
An easy thing that one can do is replacing the "isprint(n)" by "n > 31" in g_rtext.c and then recompile pd. On linux this produces extended ascii characters. Don' t know what it does on windows and OSX, maybe someone is willing
to try.
Works for me on Mac OS X! Could this simple patch cause any bugs? Why
was isprint() there in the first place?
