It is a bit inconsistent and therefore confusing. I searched for "bidirectional" which immediately pointed me at the general punctuation pages in a pdf file. Searching for "bidrectional" in that file turns up empty. If you search for left-to-right, right-to-left, override, or embed, there you do get to the characters. However a saving grace is that when you are first pointed at the general punctuation file, the character code 202A is mentioned, so if you notice that you can go right to the character range.
Maybe the initial index needs to be more comprehensive. It is usually a difficult task for any large book to get right. However, tracking the web queries might help improve it over time... tex Michael Everson wrote: > > At 18:31 -0800 2001-12-29, Asmus Freytag wrote: > >At 12:07 PM 12/29/01 +0100, Stefan Persson wrote: > >> > Seeing that Unicode already has left-to-right and right-to-left override > >>> characters, I wonder if a top-to-bottom override character might also be > >>> reasonable. > >> > >>Which are the code points for these characters? > > > >Please see > > > >http://www.unicode.org/charts/charindex.html > > That's not very helpful, Asmus.
