[edit] To Do

  • Add links where applicable (especially in table 2)
  • Add a graphic containing all the characters for this range (my fonts lack about a dozen characters in this range)

[edit] multiple meanings--linked wrong?

Some of the symbols have multiple meanings. For an obvious example, the male and female symbols are also symbols for the planets mars and venus respectively. Unfortunately, because of the way this is linked, there's no easy way to represent this. If the descriptions, rather than the symbols themselves, were links, then this would be easy to resolve:

Unicode Miscellaneous Symbols
Name Glyph Unicode # HTML
MERCURY \u263F ☿
VENUS/FEMALE SIGN \u2640 ♀
EARTH \u2641 ♁
MARS/MALE SIGN \u2642 ♂
JUPITER \u2643 ♃

But as it is, I don't see any way to deal with this, and I really don't have the strength to rewrite the entire table right now. :) Xtifr tälk 08:56, 29 September 2006 (UTC)
