Messages, usually strong and important are carried that way? Ex. Road Signs. This may be gestures, icons, signs, noise, etc. Ex. VV is associated to Viva. This can be carried as two V's. But "Down with" is expressed with two reversed V's. How to express that? Ex. Beard has often carried a very precise meaning in many societies. How to code that message expressed by a person. The same with different gestures we all know to express welcome, interrogation, insult, love propositions, etc. More and more multilingual codes are to be known by everyone. The problem is that these modern hieroglyphs are documented by ISO 7000 at an expensive cost and not in an easy XML/ASN.1 compatible online format. Are they characters or terms? How to code their meanings and representation? Is there a way to sort them? How register them for easier searches? jfc
