A library for generating braille and box-drawing characters.

API

This library exposes four arrays:

  • BRAILLE - Contains all braille characters.
  • BRAILLE_SINGLE - Contains all single-dot braille characters.
  • BOX - Contains all box-drawing characters.
  • BOX_SINGLE - Contains all single-dot box-drawing characters.

How these work is best explained with examples.

Examples (Braille)

println!("{}", BRAILLE[1][0]
                      [0][1]
                      [1][0]
                      [1][1]);

Output:

println!("{}", BRAILLE_SINGLE[2][1]);

Output:

for a in 0..2 {
    for b in 0..2 {
        for c in 0..2 {
            for d in 0..2 {
                for e in 0..2 {
                    for f in 0..2 {
                        for g in 0..2 {
                            for h in 0..2 {
                                print!("{}", BRAILLE[a][b]
                                                    [c][d]
                                                    [e][f]
                                                    [g][h]);
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}
