This line gets eaten by a w>@=nnnn---* I don't know of a Russian alphabet mapping for ASCII, but IBM designed one for EBCDIC. If you don't mind forgoing lower-case, you can compose theirs with one of the accepted ASCII-EBCDIC maps. 00 space space 10 & K 20 - - 30 0 0 01 A A 11 J L 21 / / 31 1 1 02 B B 12 K M 22 S F 32 2 2 03 C V 13 L N 23 T KH 33 3 3 04 D G 14 M O 24 U TS 34 4 4 05 E D 15 N P 25 V CH 35 5 5 06 F E 16 O R 26 W SH 36 6 6 07 G ZH 17 P S 27 X SHCH 37 7 7 08 H Z 18 Q T 28 Y Y 38 8 8 09 I I 19 R U 29 Z M.Z. 39 9 9 0B . . 1B $ LOZ. 2B , , 3B # YU 0C < I KR. 1C * * 2C % E OBO. 3C @ YA 0E + + Abbreviations: I KR. is short I (I with a breve); E OBO. is backwards E; M.Z. is Soft Sign; LOZ. is the lozenge symbol from the old IBM commercial BCD character set (sort of a concave-sided square). No Hard Sign or pre- revolutionary letters. Alternative: adapt Russian Morse Code, which uses a more natural cor- respondence (with International Morse). Col. G. L.
