>No hereunto present character has been moved. The additions comprise: Bidirectional control characters â Now one can choose between Western and Eastern Arabic numerals with keeping the other numerals on the third shift level â BKSL has an explicit mapping, because afore the mapping has been inferred from the Latin layout of the user â Arabic decimal and thousands separator and Arabic percent sign, single guillemets, angle brackets, Arabic five pointed star, ellipsis, en dash. An extra analogon has the free room filled with characters for polyglot usage. The OLPC layout has gotten a more comprehensible comment section and has been added to the XML data. In addition to all, this commit adds an Ugaritic keyboard layout.
