Hans, Thanks for some guidence.
I am not sure I know enough to understand and implement your suggestion. Some more info would be appreciated. Your *personal "symbols" language that dramatical improves "Information density" and Search performance * I would love to know more as it sounds very interesting. I am dabbling with Unicode a lot and see some interesting possibilities. I am keen at the moment to work out how to build virtual keyboards, that respond to standard keys. I have some interesting ideas I will share soon.
