Speaking of, anyone have a reference to a one-line alphabet using non-standard
characters? ie not one of (a-z,A-Z) I tried working on one, but as kaneda says, I
had problems with the E, F, S, R, X and Z... anyone have any insights? Or comments
on what I've come up with?

Well there is the one I used on my BBS some years ago.. looked good in a
plain 80x25 DOS font, anyway... but it's pretty much useless to ya, since
the E used *DOS* character #250, which was like an underscore ( _ ) but with
three lines (bottom, top, middle)... :)

How's this? <G>

Sounds like Unicode U+2261 IDENTICAL TO.
It's also in Symbol font, at 0186.

= <-- (it looked right until I pasted into this window... *thwack*
Mozilla)

For E, how about 3?   3L33+ B1FF D00DZ!!!!!11 do it ... <g>

[][ hi ...

hmmm... i've had this same problem... depends on the font used mostly
and possibly the context...
... on my website i hav used  (=  and  (-  as shown below...

\/\) (- /_ ( () |\/) (-    = welcome

|=| () |\/) (=             = home

| |\) |) (= )(             = index

( /_ | ( |(                = click

i think i prefer (= since its more visual...

for my name i 1st used  ( () |_ | |\|  |? /. |\| |) /. |_ |_  but adapted 
it after my son replied  /< .\ /? /_   /? .\ /\/ /) .\ /_ /_

 ... can u see wot this following word is ?

     .       .
     ::: ::: : :::
