![]() This tool supports printing UTF-32 values in bases from 2 to 36. The biggest disadvantage is that this encoding wastes 11 bits on average as all 1,114,111 Unicode characters can be represented in 21 bits. The biggest advantage of UTF-32 is that any Unicode character can be represented as a single 32-bit integer (a double word). UTF-32 encoding is a fixed-length encoding scheme that uses 4 bytes to represent each code point. Is there a setting which changes that behavior for the copy buffer, or any way I can “protect” my NUL characters when doing the conversion? Because I cannot just assume that all 20 in the resulting hex-dump are really NUL, not SPACE.This browser-based utility converts your Unicode text to UTF-32 encoding. I then took the binary version, and just copy/pasted into another file, and saw that most of the control characters stayed correct, but NUL became a space, too.Īt this point, I assume that the act of copying text into the copy-buffer (which I assume both TextFX Convert and Converter use internally) converts NUL to SPACE. … which once again shows 20 instead of 00 for NUL characters. ![]() If I follow the same procedure, but with Plugins > Converter > ASCII to HEX, I get 200102030405060708090A0B0C0D0E0F "000000080 54 68 65 20 71 75 69 63-6B 20 62 7B 6F 77 6E 20 |The quick b characters and converted them to x’s in the |.|-delimited section on the right for pasting into the forum, but those characters were all correct.) So then I try to reverse the process: Select All, TextFX > TextFX Convert > Convert text to Hex-16, and I get "000000000 20 01 02 03 04 05 06 07-08 09 0A 0B 0C 0D 0E 0F | xxxxxxxx.xx.xx|" Then I select all, and run TextFX > TextFX Convert > Convert Hex to Text: this does what I would expect, and when I show all characters, I can see it properly creates the NUL character throughout. If I Select All, then use TextFX > TextFX Convert > Convert Text to Hex-16, I noticed that all NUL characters converted from 00 to 20.Īt first, I thought it was a bug with TextFX, so I tried with Plugins > Converter > ASCII to HEX, but it does the same thing I started with the HEX-Editor plugin (0.9.5), but it wouldn’t let me paste into the hex side, and would start crashing NPP (6.8.6) when I’d do something silly like File | New. I was trying to take a binary file into a hex-edit-type mode, edit the hex strings, and convert it back to a binary.
