hey'aw.
Can anyone give me hand on handling Japanese character encodings in PD.
I feel like I've read every document on character encodings and still don't understand the mess....even for my own pragrams that work with text.
Is there a way to handle UTF-8 in PD?
hmm, depends on what you mean by "handling characters".
at least in Gem, you should be able to display unicode characters, by using the [string( message (in combination with [text3d]). the arguments are numbers which enumerate the glyphs in your font (and with unicode fonts this should map to unicode characters:) report a bug if it does not.
however, you might be talking of something totally different...
