	CHARACTER AND THE SOCIAL PROCESS
		The social character comprises only a selection of traits, the essential nucleus of the character structure of most members of a group which has developed as the result of the basic experiences and mode of life common to that group.
		Although there will be always "deviants" with a totally different character structure, the character structure of most members of the group are variations of this nucleus, brought about by the accidental factors of birth and life experience as they differ from one individual to another.
		Character in the dynamic sense of analytic psychology is the specific form in which human energy is shaped by the dynamic adaptation of human needs to the particular mode of existence of a given society.

	[No title]
		If an individual's character more or less closely conforms with the social character, the dominant drives in his personality lead him to do what is necessary and desirable under the specific social conditions of his culture.
		People tend to act according to their character structure, but either these actions are actual handicaps in their economic pursuits or there is not enough opportunity for them to find positions that allow them to act according to their "nature ".
		In contrast to these explanations, we have assumed that ideologies and culture in general are rooted in the social character; that the social character itself is moulded by the mode of existence of a given society; and that in their turn the dominant character traits become productive forces shaping the social process.

	The "Carnival Character" of the Present Age
		While his understanding of "social character" was nascent in his analysis of the lure of fascism as an authoritarian/destructive response to anxiety and powerlessness, he expanded this understanding to include receptive, exploitative, hoarding and marketing manifestations.
		While psychoanalytic discourses have moved from the classical pathologies of repression to the contemporary pathologies of the self eg."narcissistic character disorders", false self and the borderline personality, such concepts must be understood as manifestations of the new forms consumer based selfhood that in the face of capitalist crises are increasing indifferent to the political.
		When the character structure of the typical individual more or less approximates the social character, s/he is thus likely to do that which is necessary and desirable as defined by the culture and in so doing, s/he will find personal gratifications and satisfactions.

	Writers Store: Structure and Character - Excerpted with Permission from the Book "Story" - Part Two by Robert ...
		Put simply, a character must be credible: young enough or old enough, strong or weak, worldly or naive, educated or ignorant, generous or selfish, witty or dull, in the right proportions.
		The event structure of a story is created out of the choices that characters make under pressure and the actions they choose to take, while characters are the creatures who are revealed and changed by how they choose to act under pressure.
		From Oedipus Rex to Falstaff, from Anna Karenina to Lord Jim, from Zorba the Greek to Thelma and Louise, this is the character/structure dynamic of consummate storytelling.

	Character structure - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A character structure is a system of relatively permanent motivational and other traits that are manifested in the characteristic ways that an individual relates to others and reacts to various kinds of challenges.
		Among the earliest factors that determine an individual's eventual character structure are his or her genetic characteristics and early childhood nurture and education.
		Fromm notes that character structures develop in each individual to enable him or her to interact successfully within a given society, to adapt to its mode of production and social norms.

	Record Structure (Library of Congress)
		All ASCII characters are encoded using one octet in the ASCII encoding and the Unicode UTF-8 encoding, thus a character is equivalent in length to an octet when an element's values are restricted to ASCII.
		Each indicator is one character and every data field in the record includes two indicators, even if values have not been defined for the indicators in a particular field.
		Variable field tags are defined in blocks according to the first character of the tag, which, with some exceptions, identifies the general function of the field's data within a record.

	structure()
		structure() differs from strconcat() in that the any argument that is a structure becomes a single component in the result, whereas strconcat() splits it into its top level components, each of which become top level components of the result.
		This usage is particularly useful in assigning names of 11 or 12 characters such as 'covariances" or 'factorloding'.
		Keywords compnames, labels, notes, and silent must follow all arguments that are to be included in the output structure.

	The CyberStation
		If the first character on the screen of the page and the first character to make a decision are the same person, the readers and audiences will perceive that person as the Main Character, regardless of what the writer intends.
		What makes the Window Character such a powerful tool is that he or she is part of the story, is entertaining in his or her own right, and often plays other roles besides that of the main character's confidant.
		The Window Character is most easily defined as the one who is there in the beginning and in the end, the one to whom the Main spills his or her guts, articulates themes, and underlines to the audience the subtext.

	UTR#17: Character Encoding Model
		A character encoding form is a mapping from the set of integers used in a CCS to the set of sequences of code units.
		Character encoding schemes are relevant to the issue of cross-platform persistent data involving code units wider than a byte, where byte-swapping may be required to put data into the byte polarity canonical for a particular platform.
		In that case, the abstract character repertoire for the character map is the union of the repertoires covered by the coded character sets involved.

	An IBM PC character generator.
		The programmable character set is possible because the IBM PC defines only the first 128 (0-127) characters in graphics mode.
		Note that even though each character definition is eight bytes long, once it is located properly, it can be recalled by its assigned ASCII code (128-254), which is only one byte long.
		After you type this number, the computer pauses a moment and then displays your character in the character set in the box on the right in the position designated by your ASCII code.

	Frankfurt School: Character and Social Process. Erich Fromm 1942
		A close analysis of the character structure of German workers can show one reason – certainly not the only one – for this phenomenon.
		Even inasmuch as these old virtues were still an asset – as with the small shopkeeper – the range of possibilities for such business was so narrowed down that only a minority of the sons of the old middle class could “use” their character traits successfully in their economic pursuits.
		The answer is not only that the parents – aside from certain individual variations – apply the educational patterns of the society they live in, but also that in their own personalities they represent the social character of their society or class.

	Summer of Code: Wide Character Support in NetBSD curses Library
		In order to handle wide character input from the terminal in get_wch(), we need to add a circular buffer in the screen structure to keep the array of input characters so that correct wide as well as narrow characters can be return properly by get_wch().
		With the modified internal character storage data structure, the new wide character routines as well as the routines that assume the narrow characters and use the old storage data storage structure must be written or rewritten to make add, insert, input, delete, refresh, and cursor movement operations work properly.
		The narrow character insch() copies the characters on the current line from the current cursor position to the edge of the window to one position to the right, overwriting the last character on the edge.
