KiX2k cannot distinguish between 60 of the characters...

AsciiScan.KiX

code:

---

break on
$=setascii("on")
cls

;
; Ascii Comparison bug test
;
; This is the list of ascii characters that KiX cannot tell apart
; ie as far as KiX is concerned chr(154) = chr(138) ie U umlaut = e grave
;

; create a list of all chars from 1 to 255
$i=1 $s="" do $s=$s+chr($i) $i=$i+1 until $i=256

; scan chars and any that are not equal, but report as equal are displayed
; except for any below chr(122) "z" because KiX thinks "A" = "a"
"KiX says that:" ? ? $i=1 $j=0
do
	if $i>122 and $i<>instr($s, chr($i)) "chr("$i") = chr(" instr($s, chr($i)) ") : '" 
	chr($i) "' = '" chr(instr($s, chr($i))) "'" $j=$j+1 if $j-$j/2=$j/2 ? else "       " endif endif
	$i=$i+1
until $i=256 ? "and cj says WTF?!" ? quit

Below is a snippet of VBS that lists the same chars:

for i = 122 to 255
for j = 122 to 255
if i <> j and lcase(chr(i)) = lcase(chr(j)) then
wscript.echo Cstr(i) & " / " & Cstr(j) & " / " & chr(i)
end if
next
