This simple mod adds blocks with letters (A-Z, a-z) numbers and symbols.

Crafting:

To select letter place dirt in place marked in green, place it in the order that corresponds to this letter in Braille.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille
Then place wood in red box - for upper case, or in yellow box - for lower case.

To select number place dirt in green box (in Braille, A for 1, B for 2 ... J for 0) and put wood in blue box.

To select symbol place dirt in green box and cobble in blue box.

A for !
B for @
C for #
D for $
E for %
F for ^
G for &
H for *
I for (
J for )
K for '
L for \
M for :
N for ,
O for =
P for -
Q for +
R for ?
S for "
T for /
U for _
V for . (dot)

Example: (for plus)
(dirt,dirt, ---)
(dirt,dirt, ---)
(dirt,---, cobble)

Space (white block):
(dirt,dirt, ---)
(dirt,dirt, ---)
(dirt,dirt, ---)

No, thanks, for now will stay with the alphabet. Maybe another time. I don't stop you, this mod has GNU GPL licence, so do whatever you want. :)

absolutely love the input method! soon everyone playing minetest will know braille. nice.

Good that you made this mod. And with braille, that's a very nice twist :-)

Nice idea; you should add numbers and punctuation, now. :P

These letters look severely. I'm open to suggestions, what color background and the letters should be used. Maybe I should use the one of standard textures as a background?

Changing colors by tapping them. Or letters that light up in the dark by tapping them. Combining the letters with the standard dye-mod?

This could be educational if you had a child who wanted to learn the alphabet you could also make big signs!

You could overlay the letters and make the drawable on several types of surfaces. There is this "background.png^letter.png" thing which lets you draw png over png.

As the background you could use whatever node image there is. Wood makes the most sense if you ask me. Or what about a selection of backgrounds and letter colours. I am willing to make all the letters in 16x16 with a several colour variants. unified-dyes mod can be used to choose the colour of the letters.

I have this error with this mod

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Looks like a bug in the builtin/game/deprecated.lua file that wouldn't have been triggered if there was no old code in the alphabet.

I didn't try, but you might solve the mod not working by outcommenting, placing -- before every line of code, that has the word digprop in it.
