ThinBasic(ThinAir) dislikes accented letters

[ErosOlmi]

No, in this case it was just an error in ASC function and conversion from ascii/utf-8/unicode

Hi Eros,


Bad luck, two issues solved in one shot, would be fine

I think I've found the problem.
Will release a new update soon

Thanks for reporting

Hi Eros.

I'm testing ThinBasic 1.12 thanks......

Now ThinAir likes accented dirs.
But, bundling still fails.

Bundling the same script in another directory is OK.

In the page : https://www.thinbasic.com/downloads.html
you state : Compatibility: Windows 10 or higher

Is it true ?
For multiple causes I am glued to Win 7.
Am I obliged to stay with ThinBasic 1.11 ?

Does the bundling issue is caused by W7 ?

Hi Eros,


I encounter a new accent problem.

the ASC(StringExpression [, position]) exhibits a curious comportement.



Just try the script given as example in ASC help file, inserting an accented char to hello string, even in last position.

And see the collection of zeroes.

Maybe the position var is fooled by 16 bits chars ?



Best regards.

ASC don't give the same collection of zeroes.
But many pop up appears. I suppose that they are from the tests you made ??

Dim MyString  As String VALUE = "HELLO   è  "

Should work also on Windows 7 but some features not.
This is not a Win7 problem but a bug
Will check soon

I've uploaded again thinBasic version 1.12.0
I should have solved problems regarding accented letters in thinBundle and ASC debug message boxes.
Let me know if fixed for you too

On accented letters there is still a problem in thinAir Open file command.
HTML list is still broken and will prevent from opening a script with accented letters.
You can bypass the problem clicking on right button "Open Script ..."
I will try to solve in next thinBasic version 1.12.1

Sorry, updated again in https://www.thinbasic.com/downloads.html#downloads
Should have solved accented letters in thinAir Open Dialog again
