What was the ISO encoding did Amiga use for the A2000 systems?
Using Rick Stiles' Uedit, I got all sorts of useful characters to print
on inexpensive Canon BJ200 inkjets, even though they were not well
supported. Things like the little superscript "o" for degrees, or the
paragraph symbol were available with an "Amiga" key + character-key.
You just had to know the translation table. For Greek "theta" (O+/) I
had the choice of either lowercase or uppercase. XCad took them OK, and
displayed/plotted them cleanly, either from direct keyboard input or
when importing a text file.
I haven't yet gotten this PC keyboard to do this on my SuSE Linux system
:-(( Is it just ignorance on my part?
VariCad <http://www.varicad.com> uses the AutoCad "special character"
system: "~"+2 for the o+/ "theta". You can't have an uppercase style of
that one! With such a limited set of special characters, they don't
understand my desire for the capability left behind in the Amiga.
