SignWriting List
October 8, 2002

Dear Daniel, and SW List Members:
To find the official categories of SSS-2002 and SSS-2004, start
SignBank. Click on SymbolBank. In SymbolBank, click on the field
"Category" (see attached diagram). This gives you the listing of the
ten categories with their official names:

CATEGORIES SSS-2004
Category 01: Hand
Category 02: Movement
Category 03: Face
Category 04: Head
Category 05: UpperBody
Category 06: Limb
Category 07: FullBody
Category 08: Space
Category 09: Dynamics
Category 10: Punctuation

Categories do not exist in SignWriter DOS or Java. And only 6
categories are used in SSS-2002 for everyday use, giving us a smaller
symbol-set...

CATEGORIES SSS-2002
Category 01: Hand
Category 02: Movement
Category 03: Face
Category 04: Head
Category 05: UpperBody
Category 09: Dynamics
