How to script properly with SpecialCharacters ?

Hi,

The question of the Special (And Invisible) Characters and how to handle it is driving me crazy.

My question is :
Is it possible to insert special characters in an extendscript string ? Like, say, a frame break, typically.
I’ve understood that SpecialCharacters enumerators does the job with .contents and GREP querries. But it seems a little bit heavy to me…

I’m working on a script which imports CSV file content, splits it, replaces some characters, and exports every line to separated ICML files. I’ve managed to do it using a textframe container, “.contents” and “exportFile()”. But i wonder if there’s a way to do it in a “transparent (and elegant) way” without any opened document nor textframe, and with more “classic” javascript, that is. However, it seems that exportFile() is too restrictive…

Thanks for reading
