Troi Automatisering releases Troi ASCII Plug-in 1.0.2 for FileMaker Pro 5.5

Open source plug-in can do ASCII conversions as an external function.  

Alphen a/d Rijn, The Netherlands, November 6, 2001--Troi Automatisering today announced the availability of Troi ASCII Plug-in 1.0.2, for FileMaker Pro 5.5 and for Mac OS, Mac OS X and Windows.

What is the ASCII Plug-in?

Troi ASCII Plug-in adds the external function "Asci-LowSafe" to FileMaker Pro 5.5. This function converts higher ASCII characters to lower ASCII characters, while trying to retain as much information as possible. Here are some examples for the translation:

  • ü becomes 'ue'
  • ø becomes 'o'

Troi ASCII is an open source plug-in: the download contains the source code. To compile the source code you need MetroWerks Codewarrior as well as a copy of FileMaker Developer 5.5 for some header files.
