I've managed to properly output non-ascii characters from tree command into a file via Take Command Console. In TCC type 'option' and on first tab select 'Unicode output'. Then simply run.

The right thing to do when you find a missing character is to complain, or insert a character like the Unicode replacement character (or a simple? If you're in a legacy codepage that doesn't have in it), or do something so that the user will know they had an invalid character in their text. Find non-ASCII characters in a text file and convert them to their Unicode equivalent. Ask Question 6. I am importing.txt file from a remote server and saving it to a database. I use a.Net script for this purpose. Normal text editors such as Notepad usually do not have the capability to enter NUL characters into files. What you probably want to do is to use a 'hex editor' (some text editors also have a 'hex' mode). Instances of typing non-western characters (Russian, Hebrew etc) and getting text which is all garbled (strange characters) have been reported. Old plugins had been considered a likely cause, but as of Notepad++ v5.4.2 this does no longer seem to hold. Complete Character List for UTF-8.

How do i remove only non utf8 keywords/lines in a text file.

Essenziale di economia mankiw pdf to jpg online. eg.

I only want to remove lines that contain all english words and not the lines with utf8 words. So in this case only 'this is only abc' will be removed. Is it possible to do it in notepad++ or do i need to write a script for it?

This is possible using the following steps;

  • Open Notepad++ select the Find menu and select the last tab 'Mark', enter the regex ^(([a-zA-Z])+s?)+, select Bookmark Line, and click the button 'Mark All'.

  • From the drop down menu select; Search --> Bookmark --> Remove Bookmarked Lines

I would also recommend making sure Notepad++ is up to date. I tested this with version 6.3. Marking lines is something added quite recently.

On a usual (Western) Windows computer, I have a file

with non-ASCII letters in the file name. How can I do the following from a .bat file?

etc.?

I tried placing the above commands into a file mybat.bat (using UTF-8 or UTF-16 encoding), but it does not work even if I run it as cmd /u /c mybat.bat.

Note: the question is not how to put those letters in a batch file, but how to make the batch file do what is expected (in my example, to list the file and then rename it).

Note: dir > log.txt command shows the file файл.txt as ???.txt. However, dir shows this file on the screen correctly as файл.txt.

Your main problem is font https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9321419/unicode-utf-8-text-file-gibberish-on-windows-console-trying-to-display-hebrew With the correct font you won't get question marks. So you should add Courier New to the command prompt. Then you'll be able to type or display/echo such characters.

If you then find that some commands have issues then try chcp 65001 (in answer to your question, rest assured that chcp 65001 will only affect that cmd prompt window). You'd need chcp 65001 for redirection to work on characters beyond u7F e.g. that dir >asdf command to write a file with those characters, will need chcp 65001. But your ren command works fine without 65001.

Note- OP points out a correction to this. His font was fine. But he needed chcp 65001.

Another case where one needs chcp 65001 is if a batch file is in utf8. Otherwise even executing a batch file with just letters like привет , those will be converted into question marks.

OP also points out a great workaround for the problem that notepad saves with utf-8 with BOM, whereas chcp 65001 is UTF-8 without BOM. And if you have a batch file encoded as utf-8 with bom, that says just e.g. dir, or echo привет then it will not work, even if cmd has encoding of 65001. Because cmd mixes the BOM up into the first line. So a workaround is to put the command(s) starting from the second line. (Alternatively one could use a text editor that saves as utf-8 without BOM).
