TRANSLATE HIGH VALUE CHARACTERS
Syntax:
[DO NOT] TRANSLATE HIGH VALUE CHARACTERS IN STRINGS [DO NOT] TRANSLATE HIGH VALUE CHARACTERS IN COMMENTS
Function:
Characters with ASCII values greater than 127 sometimes cause problems in compilation. The effects are compiler and operating system specific, but when they occur it is as if the input file is corrupt.
These commands instruct fpt to replace high value characters in strings or comments with the character "." (dot or period).
Where to Use this Command
| Operating system command line | Yes |
| Configuration file, config.fsp | Yes |
| Specification (fsp) files, *.fsp | Yes |
| Interactively, to FPT> prompt | No |
| Interactive command files | No |

Default
High valued characters are not changed by default.
Example
The character "ü" has the ASCII value 252. The comment:
C Gruppenamenanpassung für die Offline Programme
is translated by the command TRANSLATE HIGH VALUE CHARACTERS IN COMMENTS to:
C Gruppenamenanpassung f.r die Offline Programme
