argv minus one<a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/Unicode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Unicode</a> is one of those little things in life that I can't help but smile about.Is it perfect? No, of course not. Is it better than the alternative? Yes, so much so that every time I'm confronted with a long list of character encodings I can choose from, I feel a sense of relief when I find <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/UTF8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UTF8</a> among them.I wouldn't have thought it possible to standardize a single character encoding for everyone, and yet, somehow, there is just such a standard.<a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/programming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#programming</a>

screwlispHey everyone. I must admit, I don't believe I have ever seen someone enter <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/utf8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#utf8</a> <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/unicode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#unicode</a> characters on a <a href="https://mastodon.sdf.org/tags/computer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#computer</a> in a natural way.

Eniko Foxwow i think i actually managed to get utf8 working in my VM? i used `setlocale(LC_ALL, ".UTF8")` and then print the UTF32 char 0x0107 ć from my program. the interpreter uses c32rtomb to convert it to UTF8 and then i fwrite that to stdoutbut the character doesn't show up in the windows console cause windows is bad. but i figured out a workaround! i put this in my run.bat file:set run=./bismuth.exe prog.bst powershell $OutputEncoding = [Console]::InputEncoding = [Console]::OutputEncoding = New-Object System.Text.UTF8Encoding; %run%and it runs the VM through powershell with powershell forced to use UTF8 and then it works somehow, yay! more bizarrely, it doesn't show me the powershell prompt but the regular command prompt, but it works anyway? idk why but i'll take the win!also i have no idea if any of this is the right way to do things so, yanno, don't take this as a tutorial or anything<a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/PLDev" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PLDev</a> <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/Bismuth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Bismuth</a> <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/Unicode" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Unicode</a> <a href="https://peoplemaking.games/tags/UTF8" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#UTF8</a>
