TextEncodingCode

TextEncodingCode (textEncodingNameStr)

The TextEncodingCode function returns the Igor text encoding code for the named text encoding or 0 if the text encoding is unknown.

The TextEncodingCode function was added in Igor Pro 7.00.

Parameters

textEncodingNameStr is an Igor text encoding name as listed under Text Encoding Names and Codes.

Details

Igor ignores all non-alphanumeric characters in text encoding names so "Shift JIS", "ShiftJIS", "Shift_JIS" and "Shift-JIS" are equivalent.

It also ignores leading zeros in numbers embedded in text encoding names so "ISO-8859-1" and "ISO-8859-01" are equivalent.

TextEncodingCode does a case-insensitive comparison.
