I bet ya'll didn't know this!

Haven't you always hated that you can't make any comments in your superscopes?
I know I have, but just a few minutes ago I accidentaly used "¨" a bit, then I wrote something with spaces, normally this isn't possible, the superscope would just... collapse, nothing would show.
But here it did!

This is something really useful if you have large codes to get a hold of, and I know El-vis wrote a tutorial on 3D Avs scopes, here commenting to show everything would have been the greatest!
There is one more "commenting tool" I know of so far, this is the "¤" mark.
I am soo gonna love this!

Actually I believe AVS treats all characters with ASCII code >127 as a comment marker. If you use character 160, you'll get an invisible comment mark which looks like a space on most fonts. Will confuse the hell out of people

Important to note is that a comment ends whenever a semi-colon is found, not on a new-line, so you can create multi-line comment blocks as well.

By the way, if you don't know what I meant with ASCII char >127... hold ALT and type 0*** on the numerical keypad where *** is a number from 32 to 255. Note that the resulting code doesn't need to be three digits, but does need to have a 0 at its beginning (e.g. 041, 055, 0120, 0251). Alt-0160 results in a space that is not...

Most characters above >127 are things that are not used in English (letters with accents, foreign currency symbols, etc.), which are commonly used to . They differ from charset to charset though, so if you use a cyrillic alphabet, you'll find those letters in that region.

^ I have those characters memorized.

LittleBuddy88 · 3rd February 2002, 09:20

I've got these, can't remember upside down ! though... ¿º
But it can be done in word with ctrl+ alt+ shift+ !, But not anywhere else

its dosent work.

the alt 0***

UnConeD · 21st June 2002, 15:37

Works fine for me... are you sure you're using the numerical keypad and not the numbers above the letters?

2 dj coolman:

1. Use numeric keypad on the right part of keyboard.
2. Turn on NumLock to use Alt-characters in Internet Explorer.
3. Use any combination of Alt+something.

Just like this one: Äîëáî¸áû, nafique...
