Do the characters even have morse code assigned to them?

[–] [email protected] 25 points 10 months ago (3 children)

I found those:

Underscore		. . _ _ . _
Addition		. _ . _ .
Subtraction		_ . . . . _ 
Multiplication		_ . . _
Division		_ _ _ . . .
Equal			_ . . . _
Right Parenthesis	_ . _ _ . _
Left Parenthesis	_ . _ _ .

But this isn't enough for programming, square and curly brackets, carets, ampersand, pipe, tilda... I think it's gonna be pretty challenging

C is so old, it has a way to work around that! In case your 198x keyboard was not set to ASCII you know. Not sure if Morse covers all the characters needed for the replacement trigraphs though.

I love when there are solutions for every weird use case ^^

Please delete the .m. from the Wikipedia link so it's correct for desktop users.

Can't you extend it by adding extra bits? Though typing them would be problematic as the length will be growing too.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 10 months ago

It would be a blow to render this typing method slightly slower, definitely a deal breaker 😏

COW (a moo themed brainfuck variant) would work.

I'm quite sure that atmospheric wind currents don't change the direction of cosmic rays, lol.
