Macro Unweb
Posted: Sun Nov 09, 2008 2:43 pm
Hi,
I use Textpad (among many other things) for editing websites in both French and English. This means I'm perpetually using accented letters. I can insert accented letters into text without a problem, and can use the excellent little macro HTML Encoder to convert accented characters to their HTML equivalents ie:-
é = é also without any trouble. However when spell checking FROM a web page, it would be very convenient to be able to convert HTML encoded entities to their ANSI equivalent.
When I saw there was a macro "unweb" whose description says:-
"A simple little macro called "unweb" that just substitutes the ascii characters for the html codes for those characters in selected text."
Well, I can't persuade it to do anything, neither with ASCII nor ANSI coded text. Has anyone succeeded, and how did they manage it.
Thanks in advance.
