NAME
+ +
+ + ascii, unicode – interpret ASCII, Unicode characters
+ +
+

SYNOPSIS
+ +
+ + ascii [ −8 ] [ −oxdbn ] [ −nct ] [ text ] +
+ + unicode [ −nt ] hexmin−hexmax +
+ + unicode [ −t ] hex [ ... ] +
+ + unicode [ −n ] characters +
+ + look hex /usr/local/plan9/lib/unicode
+ +
+

DESCRIPTION
+ +
+ + Ascii prints the ASCII values corresponding to characters and + vice versa; under the −8 option, the ISO Latin-1 extensions (codes + 0200-0377) are included. The values are interpreted in a settable + numeric base; −o specifies octal, −d decimal, −x hexadecimal (the + default), and −bn base n. +
+ + With no arguments, ascii prints a table of the character set in + the specified base. Characters of text are converted to their + ASCII values, one per line. If, however, the first text argument + is a valid number in the specified base, conversion goes the opposite + way. Control characters are printed as two- or three-character + mnemonics. Other options are:
+ −n    Force numeric output.
+ −c    Force character output.
+ −t    Convert from numbers to running text; do not interpret control + characters or insert newlines. +
+ + Unicode is similar; it converts between UTF and character values + from the Unicode Standard (see utf(7)). If given a range of hexadecimal + numbers, unicode prints a table of the specified Unicode characters + -- their values and UTF representations. Otherwise it translates + from UTF to numeric value or vice versa, depending + on the appearance of the supplied text; the −n option forces numeric + output to avoid ambiguity with numeric characters. If converting + to UTF , the characters are printed one per line unless the −t + flag is set, in which case the output is a single string containing + only the specified characters. Unlike ascii, unicode treats + no characters specially. +
+ + The output of ascii and unicode may be unhelpful if the characters + printed are not available in the current font. +
+ + The file /usr/local/plan9/lib/unicode contains a table of characters + and descriptions, sorted in hexadecimal order, suitable for look(1) + on the lower case hex values of characters.
+ +
+

EXAMPLES
+ +
+ + ascii −d
+ +
+ + Print the ASCII table base 10.
+ +
+ unicode p
+ +
+ + Print the hex value of ‘p’.
+ +
+ unicode 2200−22f1
+ +
+ + Print a table of miscellaneous mathematical symbols.
+ +
+ look 039 /usr/local/plan9/lib/unicode
+ +
+ + See the start of the Greek alphabet’s encoding in the Unicode + Standard.
