Spanish Braille is the braille alphabet of Spanish and Galician. It is very close to French Braille , with the addition of a letter for ñ , slight modification of the accented letters and some differences in punctuation.
Braille ASCII (or more formally The North American Braille ASCII Code, also known as SimBraille) is a subset of the ASCII character set which uses 64 of the printable ASCII characters to represent all possible dot combinations in six-dot braille. It was developed around 1969 and, despite originally being known as North American Braille ASCII ...
Braille is in its origin a numeric code. Louis Braille applied the characters in numerical order to the French alphabet in alphabetical order. As braille spread to other languages, the numeric order was retained and applied to the local script.
Braille also developed symbols for representing numerals and punctuation. [6] At first, braille was a one-to-one transliteration of the French alphabet, but soon various abbreviations (contractions) and even logograms were developed, creating a system much more like shorthand. [7] Today, there are braille codes for over 133 languages. [8]
The braille package for LaTeX (and several printed publications such as the printed manual for the new international braille music code) show unpunched dots as very small dots (much smaller than the filled-in dots) rather than circles, and this tends to print better. Some braille fonts do not indicate unpunched dots at all.
Computer Braille is an adaptation of braille for precise representation of computer-related materials such as programs, program lines, computer commands, and filenames. Unlike standard 6-dot braille scripts, but like Gardner–Salinas braille codes , this may employ the extended 8-dot braille patterns.
The Braille pattern dots-12456 ( ⠻) is a 6-dot braille cell with both top, both middle, and the bottom right dots raised, or an 8-dot braille cell with both top, both upper-middle, and the lower-middle right dots raised. It is represented by the Unicode code point U+283b, and in Braille ASCII with a closing bracket: ].
