October 29, 2000 Dear SW List: For programmers working with SignWriting symbols...yesterday we had three symbol-table-files uploaded on the web...today we have four. See number 4 below: SymbolBank Database 1: 1995 SW Symbol Set compared to 1999 SW Symbol Set https://www.signbank.org/symbolbank/symbolbank001.html HANDS 1. Acrobat .pdf file SignWriting Handshapes 1999 https://www.signbank.org/symbolbank/sssdownload/SW-Hands-1999.pdf 2. Acrobat .pdf file SignWriting Handshapes 1995-1999 https://www.signbank.org/symbolbank/sssdownload/SW-Hands-1999-1995.pdf MOVEMENT 3. Acrobat .pdf file SignWriting Contact & Finger Movement Symbols 1995-1999 https://www.signbank.org/symbolbank/sssdownload/SW-Contact-Finger.pdf 4. Acrobat .pdf file SignWriting Straight Movement Symbols Wall Plane 1995-1999 https://www.signbank.org/symbolbank/sssdownload/SW-Movement1.pdf Hope this helps your programming work... There are some special cases in the fourth file, so write to me if you need an explanation. Arrowheads were handled in an unusual fashion in the old 1995 SW4.3 file format. It was improved later, but when creating conversion programs, you will need to understand the special cases in the old symbol set. There is also a conversion program written in Java, posted on the web too. Hopefully, between these tables and that conversion program, you will be able to figure it out ;-) I have around 8 more symbol tables to complete, which may take several weeks...I will go on to other work now, and try to do more next weekend - Feel free to write with questions - -- Val ;-) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Valerie Sutton Visit the SignWritingSite: https://www.SignWriting.org |
