§ 4.64 - [translate] Built-InMnemonic aid: translate See also: [translate] ) This built-in allows you to translate a character string into any arbitrary code that is in a 256-entry list. The example shows [hmap] ) being used to generate a 256-entry list of hexadecimal values, and then that list being used with [translate] ) to create a string of hexadecimal constants. Tip:
One of the things about aa_macro's syntax is that because commas are used to separate parameters, and because processing resolves all internal aa_macro language from the inside out, is that you can't really embed actual commas in text. This demonstrates a way to get around this using the [fref] ) command and the hex=1 option of the [resolve] ) command. Because [resolve] ) does its replacements the very last thing in text processing, and because the hex=1 option allows you to specity any character string, you can go back and replace anything you need to. In this example, it is used to place a comma everywhere one is needed. Other built-ins used here: [resolve] )
