Alan Woods Unicode Resources - LexiLine Journal 517

http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/ is a web site devoted to exploring the Unicode
Resources which is a convention used to display the alphabets of most of the
languages of the world. It even include the characters of the Phaisto Disk!

So far I have looked at the test pages for Unicode Ranges which is a summary of
each alphabet and Unicode's rendition of what those alphabet characters are
named. I have no idea how accurate or historical these names are. I assume that
if you have the Unicode software you could compose a document in the original
language's script. I really liked looking at the cuniform.
