Abstract
The relationship between signs that are used to communicate
with an interactive computer system and the entities that are signified (like
files, operating system interrupts, text-formatting commands) has
grown in a chaotic and haphazard manner. This paper examines the
practical problem of developing a front end processor to make
interactive computers accessible to users with different sign systems.
Ideographic languages are selected for study because they show precisely
how existing interactive systems depend on an alphabetic code, as well
as having considerable commercial importance.
