Hi!
Just worked on smybolic NAGs today and rechecked if to use
ASCII or UTF. For some reasons I'd actually prefer UTF chars
(they need much less space in the annotations e.g.) and I'd
come up with the list below.
Suggestions for improvement? Should chars change? There're
also a bunch of NAGs lacking form this list. If you have
them as UTF please feel free to send them to me.
Additionally, what do you think would be a good GUI solution
to enter these NAGs? At the moment I allow for some keyboard
entry of say □ just as [] and so on (I could give a
transcription of this) but I think some graphical
representation to select from is needed. However, they are
many... Note also: some show up the same for black as for
white though internally they are stored as different values.
If you take e.g. $24 for white's space advantage it looks
the same as $25. But internally they are different!
