| Note: Submitted to Under-ConScript Unicode Registry for unofficial allocation in BMP Private Use Area in U+EB60..U+EB9F range. | |
The Braille Extended proposal has been requested for inclusion on the Under-ConScript Unicode Registry for allocation in the U+EB60..U+EB9F block location. The proposed characters are a complete permutation of all Braille patterns that are specified in the original 1829 braille specification but not otherwise encoded in the Braille Patterns Unicode block. Louis Braille had anticipated that barred patterns might be cumbersome, and defined the "number" ⠼ Braille pattern dots-3456 as an alternate for specifying the barred braille patterns originally defined, a practice that was soon limited in practice to only distinguishing the numbers. Louis' prediction proved prophetic, and the barred patterns were quickly removed from Braille specifications soon thereafter.
Block allocation edit
The Braille Extended Block has 61 characters, and is proposed for the (Under)ConScript Unicode Registry's U+EB60..U+EB9F range in the BMP Private Use Area.
