Aloha, Joe:
I'm not quite sure how your suggestion relates to the problem of endlines.
The unicode.txt file I have is being read OK in Pages on the mac.
It also loads just fine in Rev, with the exception of the line breaks
I'm not sure where the uniencode/unidecode could be used to solve the
line break issue.

The trick is to use uniencode/unidecode for everything.
Three separate examples:
ask file "Name new file:" with "NewFile.xml"
put "binfile:" & it into theNewFileName
get the unicodetext of cd fld 1
put unidecode(it,"utf8") into url (theNewFileName)
------------------------------------------
set the unicodetext of cd fld 1 to uniencode(tMyUnicode,"utf8")
------------------------------------------
put URL (theFTPRequest) into theDownLoadedText
put uniencode(theDownLoadedText,"utf8") into theDownLoadedText
put unidecode(theDownLoadedText,"ANSI") into cd fld 1 of cd id 4630

I have some UTF-16 unicode raw text. If I import this into Pages, it
displays the font correctly and also the line breaks between
paragraphs correctly
But if I use this function:
on mouseUp
answer file "Choose a unicode file to read in."
if it is empty then exit mouseUp
put "binfile:" & it into urlName
replace numtochar(13) with numtochar(10) in urlName
set the unicodeText of fld "display" to url urlName
end mouseUp
the line breaks are not appearing in the field in revolution.
Also if I try to analyze what chars are there, where the line break
should be, by selecting across a missing line break and then use this
test:
on mouseUp
set the useUnicode to true
if the selection is empty then
answer "No Selection" with "ok"
end if
put the selection into tUnicode
put tUnicode
repeat for each char x in tUnicode
put chartonum(x) & cr after tOutput end repeat
put tOutput # returns empty
end mouseUp
I get nothing in the msg box. If I switch from Tamil Inaimathi (Mac
unicode font) to Anjal Chittu unicode, The Tamil displays correctly
and now I can clearly see a two byte block
space+square-box-symbol (somewhat transparent) where the line breaks
should be. But it still returns empty on an empty to determine what
the bytes are....
How do we deal with/import correctly, line breaks in unicode text in
Revolution?
I plan to create an editing environment as a revlet for online
work... and unicode will be imported and exported freely for later
use in InDesign. Obviously CRLF (or whatever it is in Unicode) needs
to be preserved.
Thanks!
