If <var>table</var> is a string, any characters with codes larger than the length of <var>table</var> are not altered by the translation. </p> <p>The return value of <code>translate-region</code> is the number of characters that were actually changed by the translation. This does not count characters that were mapped into themselves in the translation table. </p> -</dd> -</dl><div class="_attribution"> - <p class="_attribution-p"> - Copyright © 1990-1996, 1998-2022 Free Software Foundation, Inc. <br>Licensed under the GNU GPL license.<br> - <a href="https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Substitution.html" class="_attribution-link">https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Substitution.html</a> - </p> -</div> |
