do I need to use another number-symbols when I want my webpage to be accessible in other countries? According to Microsoft there are different shape of numbers: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/globalization/locale/number-formatting#:~:text=formatting%20for%20details.-,The%20character%20used%20as%20the%20thousands%20separator,thousands%20separator%20is%20a%20space.
I have been searching since a few days to get a clear answer but I cant find some. Also, on most international websites/apps I only ever see the digits 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 although the digits for the language actually look different. That unsettles me. I feel like many websites/apps just ignore this fact. Can anybody help me further? Also do I need to know how to activate foreign symbols in html?
I do not know for sure what language you are translating/typing in HTML. But here is an example of what you can use as a guide to certain scripts in Arabic: https://sites.psu.edu/symbolcodes/languages/mideast/arabic/arabicchart/
You may also need to use a converter. For example, I type Chinese on my website by typing the characters into a character to unicode converter. Then I copy and paste the unicode to my HTML text.

There are some files like GEDCOM and ADIF that are plain text files, but many people tend to work with them through GUIs. Say I wanted to do data entry on these files directly without any GUI.There are a number of things that make this a little dangerous. Things like misspellings of necessary file-grammar, missing a necessary key, incorrect types for values, etc. There is also something to be said for the additional difficulty of having to type additional characters relative to a GUI.
From what I can tell by thinking about this for 15mins ;) is that having the following would make the job of plain text entry much easier.
A formatter. I think of something like Python's Black which is a CLI that can be run on a file. It can let users know of bad formatting and can provide fixes.
A linter. I think of flake8 to ensure the styling matches the standard.
Autocomplete. The file type examples I showed above have a dictionary of key words. To save on typing it would be nice to have autocomplete.
Syntax Highlighting. Having a way to know if my data entry is good or bad in real-time would be helpful.
It seems like requirements 1-2 could be solved by making a file specific CLIs that combs through plain text files.
Requirement 4 seems IDE specific. vim and vscode allow users to make syntax highlighting plugins. The problem is that this is normally solved by connecting to a language server. When you are not looking for a language server, but for key words and proper values in a plain text file how does let their IDE know that to look for? Is this just a regex soup solution or is there a better way?
Requirement 3 may also be IDE specific, but the same question applies as for requirement 4. When there is not a language server how can I let an IDE know what/how to autocomplete?
Any examples of plain text data entry made easier would be appreciated.
Thanks!
I am turning to use Sublime3 instead of Notepad++. I have some concern when working with Perl/PHP or any kind of languages that use dollar sign for declare variable.
Here is an example, in Notepad ++:
As can be seen, "HELO $name" was displayed with different colors.
By that way, we can easily recognize there is a variable in the string.
In Sublime 3 , it looked like this:
So you can see there are no different between text and variable. It would caused confusion in some case.
May I know is there are any solution for this ?
Thank you and best regards.

This is self-promoting, but it will actually solve the problem
You may want to check out my Neon Color Scheme, available via Package Control. Its goal is to make as many languages as possible look as good as possible, and has hundreds of selectors that are specific for many different syntaxes, including Perl and PHP. Specifically, both languages support highlighting for string interpolation. Here is your code using Sublime's Perl syntax from dev build 3118, which should be very similar to the latest public build, which you should be using if you're not registered yet:
And here is the equivalent code in PHP:
Please note that these images were taken using a work-in-progress version of Neon, which I'm planning on releasing in the next day or so. The current version should look the same, as I don't think I've edited any of these scopes, but if not just let me know and I'll point you to the dev version.
I've export my bookmarks from FF in to a html file but it's too huge and complicated, so I need to remove some firefox lines from it to make it more lighter and plain.
I can replace basic things in the Notepad++ but I guess I do need some operators for this and I have no idea how to make it work right.
For example here is the line from the file containing a link to Logodesignlove :
Logo Design Love
I need to remove all those tags I don't care about, like LAST_MODIFIED="1256428672", ICON_URI="bunch of digits" ICON="bunch of characters" etc.
And of course I need to remove all those tags in every link in the list.
So I was thinking like use something like "Find all tags LAST_MODIFIED="anynumbers" and replace it with nothing/remove it" - it doesn't work though.
Examle how it should like:
Logo Design Love
So far I removed LAST_MODIFIED and ADD_DATE lines thanks to Aleksandr. So LAST_MODIFIED="\d+" worked just fine. But ICON and ICON_URI are still there. I've tried ICON="\w+" - but it doesn't work. I guess it has something to do with the slashes.
Why look for what you don't want when it's easier to keep hold of what you do want and drop the junk?
(<A HREF=".*?").*?(>.*?>)
with
$1$2
Code edited to suit Notepad++ now I know it doesn't need the special chars escaped. Thanks Aleksandr.
Read up on using regular expressions (the java regex tutorials are a good start http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/essential/regex/), and try one of the online regex tools to help write and test it, such as this one http://gskinner.com/RegExr/
Eg, remove "LAST_MODIF..." with the regex LAST_MODIFIED="\d+"
Otherwise, you may want an XML-specific tool, or even write an XSL. However, I don't know much about that.
I have a compare routine ... but I need it to understand that when i search a "e" I also search for "é" or "è".
Is there an esay way to do that or do I really need to search and replace every accentued caractere before comparing ?
Thanks
You have to search and replace for every character since they are entirely different and no language will be able to figure out which characters you want to replace with what. Remember, programming languages don't speak english, they speak 010101 :)
Depending on the language you want to do this in, you may want to consider googling for a pre-existing library or plugin.
One of the problems I have with Google is that it seems to strip special characters like dots, commas and some other special characters, which are usually what I'm looking for when I'm trying to find anything programming-related
ex: django # sign returns irrelevant data. Perhaps you know a way (or an alternative/technique) to make this possible?

Why would M# be harder to Google than C#?
If you're looking for actual code examples, you can try code.google.com. Otherwise, the safest bet is to find the main website for whatever language you've got questions about and look around there, although a little digging is likely to turn it up on google.
