14 # The charset used on RISC OS ('Acorn RISC OS'). The same as Latin-1,
15 # except for extra printable characters from 0x80 until 0xA0.

19 # First everything from Latin-1 outside 0x80 -| 0xA0.
20 # Now the RISC OS specific characters. This is from RISC OS 3.11. In
21 # earlier versions of RISC OS, some of these were used for drawing
22 # window icons such as close and resize. They're no longer used for
23 # that purpose, but remain in the character set.
25 # The Unicode value in each line, and the first comment, reflect the
26 # 8x8 'system font'. The second comment shows how the character looks
27 # in Homerton, one of the outline fonts that comes with RISC OS. The
28 # third comment shows the character for that position in fonts
29 # supplied by EFF, a third-party supplier of RISC OS outline fonts.
31 # A hollow square box with a hollow square box in its top left-hand
32 # corner. (Imagine a square clock showing nine o'clock.) It means
33 # 'resize window' and doesn't seem to have a Unicode equivalent.
35 # A 'bubble-writing' X, meaning 'close window'. I have picked a
36 # Unicode character which will hopefully look similar, though the
37 # special meaning is not preserved.
39 # This character is very odd. It looks like '8 to the power 7' - the
40 # 7 is to the right of and above the 8, so it's not 'seven eigths'.
41 # It might originally have been the 'maximize' button on windows.
43 # Four arrows for window scrollbars. These appear as 'bubble' or
44 # hollow arrows. Again, Unicode doesn't have characters with this
45 # meaning, but they should look about the same.
