Abstract

See full text

A safe system and method for reversibly translating source code between unlike character sets, or formats, includes a mapping table of syntactically necessary characters and, possibly, other frequently used characters, for translating source characters from a first format to a second format. A marker character is used to replace other characters in the source code while preserving the original, replaced source characters in a comment file. Upon reverse translating, syntactically necessary characters are translated back into the first format using the mapping table, and marker characters are replaced by original source characters from the comment file.
