Mini viooltje

Today I needed some Javascript to convert a HEX-encoded string to an ASCII-encoded string. The reason is that to be able to send all possible strings via AJAX-calls back to the client, without problems with quotes, apostrophes and other non-ASCII7 characters, I decided to encode the AJAX-data to hex, which is a nice and simple ASCII7 string of only the characters 0 through 9 and A through F.

After Googling a bit I found an example on webdeveloper.com and some tips on stackoverflow.com, and both combined with some of my own JS-knowledge, I came up with the following small and handy functions:

function Str2Hex(tmp) {
	var str = "";
	for (var i=0; i<tmp.length; i++)
		str += ("00" + (tmp.charCodeAt(i)).toString(16)).substr(-2);
	return(str);
}
function Hex2Str(tmp) {
	var str = "";
	for (var i=0; i<tmp.length; i+=2) 
		str += String.fromCharCode(parseInt(tmp.substr(i,2),16));
	return(str);
}

For example, after a user made a selection from the autocomplete menu and you return a HEX-encoded string containing multiple values, separated by "+++", to fill other form-fields too:

..., select: function(e,u) {
	var x = Hex2Str(u.item.value).split("+++");
	$("#field1").val(x[0]).change();
	$("#field2").val(x[1]).change();
	... etc.
	return false; } ....

Or when you return multiple values as a HEX-encoded JSON array:

..., select: function(e,u) {
	var x = u.item.value;
	$("#field1").val(Hex2Str(x.field1)).change();
	$("#field2").val(Hex2Str(x.field2)).change();
	... etc.
	return false; } ....

Happy coding!

Sublime Text 2 is a superb code editor. I am using it now since 4 days and I am already completely used to it. I thought I would miss all integrated functions in Coda 2, but it turns out that I don't. I already use applications like Transmit, SmartSVN and Navicat outside Coda 2 to do more than can be done from within Coda 2, so I am already used to that. After 4 days of coding with Sublime Text it is now the other way around - I miss stuff in Coda 2 that makes me turn back to Sublime Text!

A fellow developer has made a great Lasso syntax highlighter for Sublime Text 2 and I have been playing around a color scheme to get the (almost) same syntax coloring as I had in Coda 2. Maybe you find it useful too.

Version 2 of ICS Viewer was released today. Someone reported a crash, which had to do with the order of VEVENT entries. This, among other things, has been fixed. Enjoy!

An artificial form, but still quite familiar ;-) Created while our garden tap was dripping in the sink outside.

While cleaning my databases I found a Logistics dictionary called 'Terminology in Logistics', which I once digitized from a paper version. I've put it online as a searchable database. If you miss anything, please let me know and I'll add it - if is a valid entry.

I created a page how to 'Connect to the Tor Network', which describes the steps to connect your whole Mac, not just clients with their own proxy settings, to the Tor Network. It's really simple and not complicated at all.

Happy free and anonymous browsing!
