Why \x80?

Code: Select all

regex:\x{20AC}

[therube]

Why?

Why not .

So teach me something, or point to to where to find it, if you would.

Code: Select all

PROGRAM AREA CLEARED
                    
READY               
>? ATH("80")        
€                   

Hex editor sees it a $80$

Code: Select all

2D 2D 2D 2D 2D 30 80 2D 97 2D 0D 0A

Vim finds € with \%x80.


So, I must be confusing things, myself... just what?
What, I'm confusing unicode & hex & regex?
(Sound like I'm all mixed up.)


And while we're at it, (\x80 vs \x{80}), \x alone is only good for 2 (hex) characters?
Where { } will allow for more?

[ovg]

Hmm, I can't find € as \x80, only as \x{20aC}. May be due to Russian Locale? Neither Ultraedit nor RegexBuddy ....

And while we're at it, (\x80 vs \x{80}), \x alone is only good for 2 (hex) characters?
Where { } will allow for more?

I think this is right

[therube]

This, http://www.ltg.ed.ac.uk/~richard/utf-8. ... 0&mode=hex, points to, Code point.

(Which doesn't really get me anywhere, except at least I'm seeing "80" .)

Likewise, € in "character" mode, http://www.ltg.ed.ac.uk/~richard/utf-8. ... &mode=char, shows a "20AC".

[void]

€ is 0x80 in code page 1252 (Windows ANSI).
€ is 0x20ac in unicode.

Everything Perl Compatible regex uses unicode.

\x must have one or two following digits:
\xd or \xdd

\x{dddd} can have any number of digits.

Thank you, David!
