This is a semi-fictional "con-codepage" for supporting Toaq and Derani on DOS-era computers in Toaqgua.

It is based off of the IBM PC's code page 437 with changes to support both Toaq writing systems.

Some concessions are are made due to the limitations of text rendering:

  • In Latin, prefixes are written using hyphens instead of underdots.
  • The Deranı tone markers (0xF7 through 0xF9) simply precede and float before the word they are on.
  • Cartouches are not used, other than the null cartouche (0x07). (Instead of 󱚺󱛊󱚺 󱛘󱛆󱚺󱛂󱛙 sá haq just write 󱚺󱛊󱚺 󱛆󱚺󱛂 sá haq)
  • The Derani diphthong reform is used for falling diphthongs.
