Re: What ASCII character ?

I don't know what ASCII character it is but 
use the attached xpl program
to put the character
on the command line to change it or delete it. 

XPL - DEF2CMD.xpl

Instuctions - DEF2CMD.txt

Good Luck

Y'all,

I have imported text files from some other program littered with some
character I wish to replace. See screenshot: the black rectangles with
gray circles in the middles. Does anyone know what ASCII character
this is, so I know what to plug into the XY CI command?

I do not have copy-paste facility to the command line; I shall have to
manually type the ASCII code into the XY CI command.
