PureBasic Forums - English

Since the ASCII mode in PureBASIC will be removed in the future, I have been learning about unicode and the UCS-2 encoding that PureBASIC uses internally to represent unicode characters.

I have found a table of UCS-2 characters at this web page:

http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ucs2.html

If anyone here knows of other UCS-2 tables online, please post the link to them here.

All PureBASIC programmers will eventually have to "think" in terms of UCS-2.

Here is another listing of the Unicode characters.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters

This site
http://www.decodeunicode.org/
makes the following statement:

decodeunicode – The world’s writing systems
Unicode 5.0 encodes exactly 98,884 graphic characters on different planes.
Here you can see them all.

Soon we will update to Unicode 6.0 with 109,242 characters.

- BabelMap (Unicode Character Map for Windows) (supports Unicode 7)

Thanks Danilo for posting the link to BabelMap.
It looks like it will be a very useful tool.
