Type or paste text in the green box and click on the Convert
button
above
it. Alternative representations will appear in all the other boxes. You can also do the same in any
grey
box, if you want to target only certain types of escaped text. You can then cut & paste the
results into
your document. selects all the
text in
a box (useful for deleting), and
copies the
text to the clipboard, if your browser supports that. See the help page for other options.
Worked example. The text in the field with a green background currently
contains a
variety of escapes. Normally you would simply click on the Convert
button just above
the field
to show the various escape formats below. Note, however, that this (unusually convoluted) text
represents
two characters using just a code point number – therefore, for this particular example, you should
select
Treat bare numbers as Hex code points
(or decimal) to convert those numbers as well as
the
other escapes. You should also ensure that the checkbox next to Convert \n etc
is
selected, in
order to convert the \n
and \t
escapes.
After selecting those options, click on the Convert
button.
You will then see the conversion results in the grey boxes. You can use checkboxes alongside many boxes to tweak the results. For more information on each of the grey boxes, see the help page.
