Hi all,

Mark is right!

So, to be fair to Luther: I am sorry Luther.

Have a nice Sunday,

Emile

To be fair, this is AppleScript's fault, not Luther's. Until AS 2.0 came along, "ASCII number" and "ASCII character" were the only built-in commands for converting between numeric and string representations of characters, and they were not limited to 0-127, but were dependent upon the character s et/encoding in use (e.g. MacRoman in English locales).

Now we have "(character )id" instead, which is better, although still
subject to possible confusion due to the the different possible
meanings of "character" in a Unicode context.
