× The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.



For a single program that's open, you can just select the character then copy/paste it into the find/replace dialog and replace it with a blank.


You can also search using the Unicode value (using \u0000) or Ascii Hex values (using \x20).
Since RDI runs on Eclipse it doesn't understand how to search Code page 37 directly.

Cp37 X'22' is Unicode \u0082.


This regular expression probably covers most of the color values used:

(\u0001|\u009c|\u0080|\u0081|\u0082|\u0083|\u0084|\u0017|\u001b|\u0088|\u0089|\u008a|\u008c|\u0090|\u0091|\u0016|\u0093|\u0094|\u0096|\u0098|\u0099|\u009a|\u009b|\u0014|\u009e|\u00d8)

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Search/Replace unprintable attribute characters

A lot of our old source has hex codes to highlight comment lines, etc.


I don't seem to be able to find a way to search for these and replace with blanks in RDi. Value is x'22'.


Any suggestions?


Thanks.
