## How do I work with the character set?
-I type the special characters using a backslash escape, so that, for example, typing `\` then `z` writes `⥊` (the backslash character itself is not used by BQN). The online REPL supports this method out of the box, and this repository also has [scripts](https://github.com/mlochbaum/BQN/tree/master/editors) to support it, along with the standard syntax highlighting and indentation, in Vim and [Kakoune](https://kakoune.org/). When starting out, it may be easier to use the bar above the REPL: hover over a character to see a short description, and click to insert it into the editor. Finally, on Linux [this configuration file](https://github.com/mlochbaum/BQN/blob/master/editors/bqn) for [XKB](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X_keyboard_extension) can be used to allow typing glyphs with a modifier key system-wide.

The online REPL supports this method out of the box, and there's a [bookmarklet](https://abrudz.github.io/lb/bqn) that allows your browser to enable it for any webpage.

The [font comparison page](https://mlochbaum.github.io/BQN/fonts.html) shows several fonts that support BQN (including the one used on this site, a modified version of DejaVu Sans Mono). Most other monospace fonts are missing some BQN characters, such as double-struck letters `𝕨`, `𝕩` and so on, which will cause these characters to be rendered with a fallback font and possibly have the wrong width or look inconsistent.
