Hoi,<div>For a computer person they are not languages either, they are scripts and they would be marked according to the relevant standard as an addition to the language. For SignWriting this is possible as this script has been recognised in the ISO-15924. It would be ase-Sgnw for American Sign Language written in SignWriting.</div>

best bet would be to check with Rachel Channon as she has been working
on a multi-conversion program between SignWriting, HamNoSys and a third
