Do the characters even have morse code assigned to them?

[–] [email protected] 26 points 4 months ago (11 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.
