txt2dat for unicode

[Travis Cobbs]

Note that I didn't talk of ASCII code... I explore the character table of the font I want to use till I find the glyph I need, and add the (decimal) code to txt2dat command line:

Code:

txt2dat -a 7682 -a 65210 -a 946 -a 1488 -a 9567 -o characters.dat -l -p 50 -h 120 -c 15 -b 0 Arial.ttf

Gives this

That means that my suggestion wouldn't have worked, since -a is clearly not using the code page. It also means that somebody could write a Unicode-aware app that produces txt2dat command lines using -a, since the value after the -a appears to just be the Unicode value converted from hexadecimal to decimal.
