Syntax

Each hieroglyph has its own code, put between <hiero> tags.

Between these tags, a letter [A-Z + Aa], represents hieroglyph categories and is followed by a number. This is an extension of Gardiner's sign list.

For example <hiero>A11</hiero> will give <hiero>A11</hiero>

Hieroglyph sentences can be made, using the following layout codes:

• - separator
• : subdivision
• * juxtaposition
• ! end of line

For example, <hiero>A1-B1-!-C1-D1</hiero> Will produce A1 and B1 on one line and C1 and D1 on another.

<hiero>A1-B1-!-C1-D1</hiero>

An in depth guide to using this syntax can be found here.
