Is there an editor that will show most characters on the screen. Actually a modification to Qeditor would be "Cool Beaners." if Hutch has a mind 2.
It get really ***king old to have to drop to DOS everytime I want to see extended ASCII characters that are useful in coding and other things. Since going to XP, seems like I am using a typewriter where only half the keys work.
XP can show extended ASCII in directories, but not in their editor? To be fair, nobody does it.
Sorry, but in a complaining mode.

Oh, so is it Larry now? Or Andy? Or both? (Or neither?)
Andy,
Why not try the HELP FILE as it has an ascii chart in it. In MASM32.HLP under the heading ASCII CHARACTERS, it has this table.

The extended ascii characters generally do not display correctly with windows fonts.

It's those extended characters that I want to use.
Hold down ALT, type the (decimal) code for the character into the keypad, release ALT.
e.g. ALT+1,6,4 = ñ
Yeah, and if you dont know that decimal code:
C:\WINDOWS\system32\charmap.exe
