Question: How can I insert a special non-ASCII characters in a resource string?
Answer: Non-ASCII 8-bit or Unicode characters outside of the Latin code-page cannot be typed straight into the 8-bit resource script
file. Instead, these characters must be inserted using a special syntax of the form <0xab> for 8-bit characters or <0xabcd> for
Unicode characters. The angle brackets should be placed outside the text quotation characters, e.g.,
RESOURCE LBUF r_text { txt="More"<0x1234>"?";}
If the character is being used several times, it can be useful to #define the character code. E.g. to define a Unicode ellipsis character:
#define KEllipsis 0x2026 RESOURCE LBUF r_text { txt="More""?";}
