Correctly translate backslashed numbers to symbols?

106 Views Asked by At

I just decompiled a file with luadec, it does it well, and, the output not being perfect, it's still usable, but I'm getting a weird string of numbers \198\247\184\181\188\177\177\219\183\161\189\186 that I know for a fact are in Korean language, but I do not know what they're called and basically can't find anything about them.

I just need to correctly translate the string from numbers to symbols or gibberish text, like this c±Ý»ö´À³¦Ç¥.

If someone could point me in the right direction I would be grateful, thanks.

I ran this script with Lua

print"\198\247\184\181\188\177\177\219\183\161\189\186"

and saved the output to a text file which I then loaded into Safari.

I got gibberish the default encoding. I got 포링선글래스 with Korean (Mac OS) encoding. Same thing with Korean (Windows, DOS), but not with Korean (ISO 2022-KR).

Note that escaped numbers in Lua are in decimal.
