Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hi ya, I know - 11 is out, nice and shiny new and a new website and ... I have to spoil things. Sorry. I suspect this is not confined to windows but this is where I found it. I have a strong recollection of having heard about this in the forums but could not find the older posts. Win 7 Acc 11.0. Production. I am finally getting 'round to syncing things Mac to Win etc. and I've made it finally to User Tools. I have one called Bird's Eye Workbook, I don't even recall where I got it - perhaps the exchange. Oh I see its a companion to Palmer's Bird's Eye View of the Bible. Anyhow if I try to sync it never makes it to DropBox. If I rename it to remove the quote then it uploads fine. ThxD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Helen Brown Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 This tool is installed along with the module. Perhaps it has a curly quote mark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott M Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Daniel, I was able to build a user tool and sync it up with that name. (Will try syncing down momentarily.) I'm wondering if the single quote / apostrophe character that I used is identical to the one you used on your system. I copied the name directly from your post, but I wonder if it got 'improved' along the way somewhere, because it is of the generic, 'dumb' single quote variety. So I'm wondering with Helen, was the one in question more of a smart / curly quote thingy? If you can give me the Unicode or ANSI character value, that would be helpful.

Scott Knapp Posted November 7, 2014 Share Posted November 7, 2014 Bird's Eye Workbook has always had a single "curly" quote in its name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 7, 2014 Author Share Posted November 7, 2014 Hey Scott, Thanx for looking at this. I am not at my machines to check right now. I can double check tonight but it sounds like you may have what you need. Thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Λύχνις Δαν Posted November 8, 2014 Author Share Posted November 8, 2014 Hey Scott, Looks like 0xe2 (in the extended charset) : [Daniel-Semlers-iMac:Accordance Backup/11rc2BookmarksUTUN_141106/User Tools] dsemler% echo 'Bird’s Eye Workbook' | od -xc0000000 6942 6472 80e2 7399 4520 6579 5720 726f B i r d ’ ** ** s E y e W o r0000020 626b 6f6f 0a6b k b o o k \n 0000026 and yes I think its a 'curly' quote though I'd not heard the term before. The 'straight' quote is 0x27 in the normal range. Thx D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Knapp Posted November 8, 2014 Share Posted November 8, 2014 (edited) It's what we call it internally. But that is definitely the MacRoman encoding for it. http://www.alanwood.net/demos/macroman Unfortunately it's different than the Windows Latin1 encoding which is 0x92. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc195054.aspx And that difference keeps occasionally causing issues.
