The Unicode values used when translating APLX characters to Unicode follow the
standard described by Adrian Smith in Vector 19.3 (January 2003). The full set of characters (not all of which may be displayable on a given platform), and the values
used when mapping from APLX characters to Unicode, are as follows:
(Non-printing control characters are not shown).

There may be several different Unicode characters which look
similar to, or provide a similar function to, an APLX character. In order to maximise the probability of
being able to represent the text when converting from Unicode to internal representation,
APLX accepts as input a number of alternative Unicode values for certain
characters. These are as follows:
Unicode Unicode meaning Mapped to character (hex) 00a6 Broken vertical bar | Remainder 2223 'Divides' in 'Mathematical operators' | Remainder 2227 Logical And in 'Mathematical operators' ^ And 223c Tilde in 'Mathematical operators' ~ Not 22c6 Star in 'Mathematical operators' * Star 2013 En dash - Minus 2212 Minus in 'Mathematical operators' - Minus 2044 'Fraction slash' / Slash 2215 'Division slash' / Slash 25AF Square in 'Geometric shapes' Quad 25ca Diamond in 'Geometric shapes' Diamond 203e Overline High minus 2018 Left quote ' Single quote 2019 Right quote ' Single quote 201c Left double quote " Double quote 201d Right double quote " Double quote 03b1 Greek alpha Alpha 03b2 Greek beta Beta-S 03b5 Greek epsilon Epsilon 03b9 Greek iota Iota 03c1 Greek rho Rho 03c9 Greek omega Omega 2028 Line-separator character Carriage-return 2029 Paragraph-separator character Carriage-return
