1. the American Standard Code for Information Interchange, a
code consisting of a set of 128 7-bit combinations used in
digital computers internally, for display purposes, and
for exchanging data between computers. It is very widely
used, but because of the limited number of characters
encoded must be supplemented or replaced by other codes
for encoding special symbols or words in languages other
than English. Also used attributively; -- as, an ASCII
file.

American Standard Code for Information Interchange
ASCII

The basis of character sets used in almost
all present-day computers. US-ASCII uses only the lower seven
bits (character points 0 to 127) to convey some {control
codes}, space, numbers, most basic punctuation, and unaccented
letters a-z and A-Z. More modern coded character sets (e.g.,
Latin-1, Unicode) define extensions to ASCII for values above
127 for conveying special Latin characters (like accented
characters, or German ess-tsett), characters from non-Latin
writing systems (e.g., Cyrillic, or Han characters), and such
desirable glyphs as distinct open- and close-quotation marks.
ASCII replaced earlier systems such as EBCDIC and Baudot,
which used fewer bytes, but were each broken in their own way.

Computers are much pickier about spelling than humans; thus,
hackers need to be very precise when talking about characters,
and have developed a considerable amount of verbal shorthand for
them. Every character has one or more names - some formal, some
concise, some silly.

Individual characters are listed in this dictionary with
alternative names from revision 2.3 of the Usenet ASCII
pronunciation guide in rough order of popularity, including
their official ITU-T names and the particularly silly names
introduced by INTERCAL.

See V ampersand, asterisk, back quote, backslash,
caret, colon, comma, commercial at, control-C,
dollar, dot, double quote, equals, exclamation mark,
greater than, hash, left bracket, left parenthesis,
less than, minus, parentheses, oblique stroke,
percent, plus, question mark, right brace, {right
brace}, right bracket, right parenthesis, semicolon,
single quote, space, tilde, underscore, {vertical
bar}, zero.

Some other common usages cause odd overlaps. The "#", "$", ">",
and "&" characters, for example, were all pronounced "hex" in
different communities because various assemblers use them as a
prefix tag for hexadecimal constants (in particular, "#" in many
assembler-programming cultures, "$" in the 6502 world, ">" at
Texas Instruments, and "&" on the BBC Micro, {Acorn
Archimedes}, Sinclair, and some Zilog Z80 machines). See also
splat.

The inability of US-ASCII to correctly represent nearly any
language other than English became an obvious and intolerable
misfeature as computer use outside the US and UK became the rule
rather than the exception (see software rot). And so national
extensions to US-ASCII were developed, such as Latin-1.

Hardware and software from the US continued for some time to
embody the assumption that US-ASCII is the universal character set
and that words of text consist entirely of byte values 65-90 and
97-122 (A-Z and a-z); this is a major irritant to people who want
to use a character set suited to their own languages. Perversely,
though, efforts to solve this problem by proliferating sets of
national characters produced an evolutionary pressure (especially
in protocol design, e.g., the URL standard) to stick to
US-ASCII as a subset common to all those in use, and therefore
to stick to English as the language encodable with the common
subset of all the ASCII dialects. This basic problem with having
a multiplicity of national character sets ended up being a prime
justification for Unicode, which was designed, ostensibly, to be
the *one* ASCII extension anyone will need.

A system is described as "eight-bit clean" if it doesn't
mangle text with byte values above 127, as some older systems
did.

/as'kee/, n.

[originally an acronym (American Standard Code for Information Interchange)
but now merely conventional] The predominant character set encoding of
present-day computers. The standard version uses 7 bits for each character,
whereas most earlier codes (including early drafts of ASCII prior to June
1961) used fewer. This change allowed the inclusion of lowercase letters —
a major win — but it did not provide for accented letters or any other
letterforms not used in English (such as the German sharp-S ß. or the
ae-ligature æ which is a letter in, for example, Norwegian). It could be
worse, though. It could be much worse. See EBCDIC to understand how. A
history of ASCII and its ancestors is at http://www.wps.com/texts/codes/
index.html.

Computers are much pickier and less flexible about spelling than humans;
thus, hackers need to be very precise when talking about characters, and
have developed a considerable amount of verbal shorthand for them. Every
character has one or more names — some formal, some concise, some silly.
Common jargon names for ASCII characters are collected here. See also
individual entries for bang, excl, open, ques, semi, shriek, {
splat}, twiddle, and Yu-Shiang Whole Fish.

This list derives from revision 2.3 of the Usenet ASCII pronunciation
guide. Single characters are listed in ASCII order; character pairs are
sorted in by first member. For each character, common names are given in
rough order of popularity, followed by names that are reported but rarely
seen; official ANSI/CCITT names are surrounded by brokets: . Square
brackets mark the particularly silly names introduced by INTERCAL. The
abbreviations “l/r” and “o/c” stand for left/right and “open/close”
respectively. Ordinary parentheticals provide some usage information.

The pronunciation of # as ‘pound’ is common in the U.S. but a bad idea; {
Commonwealth Hackish} has its own, rather more apposite use of ‘pound sign’
(confusingly, on British keyboards the £ happens to replace #; thus
Britishers sometimes call # on a U.S.-ASCII keyboard ‘pound’, compounding
the American error). The U.S. usage derives from an old-fashioned
commercial practice of using a # suffix to tag pound weights on bills of
lading. The character is usually pronounced ‘hash’ outside the U.S. There
are more culture wars over the correct pronunciation of this character than
any other, which has led to the ha ha only serious suggestion that it be
pronounced “shibboleth” (see Judges 12:6 in an Old Testament or Tanakh).

The ‘uparrow’ name for circumflex and ‘leftarrow’ name for underline are
historical relics from archaic ASCII (the 1963 version), which had these
graphics in those character positions rather than the modern punctuation
characters.

The ‘swung dash’ or ‘approximation’ sign (∼) is not quite the same as tilde
~ in typeset material, but the ASCII tilde serves for both (compare {angle
brackets}).

Some other common usages cause odd overlaps. The #, $, >, and & characters,
for example, are all pronounced “hex” in different communities because
various assemblers use them as a prefix tag for hexadecimal constants (in
particular, # in many assembler-programming cultures, $ in the 6502 world,
> at Texas Instruments, and & on the BBC Micro, Sinclair, and some Z80
machines). See also splat.

The inability of ASCII text to correctly represent any of the world's other
major languages makes the designers' choice of 7 bits look more and more
like a serious misfeature as the use of international networks continues
to increase (see software rot). Hardware and software from the U.S. still
tends to embody the assumption that ASCII is the universal character set
and that characters have 7 bits; this is a major irritant to people who
want to use a character set suited to their own languages. Perversely,
though, efforts to solve this problem by proliferating ‘national’ character
sets produce an evolutionary pressure to use a smaller subset common to all
those in use.

ASCIIbonics

(From ASCII and Ebonics) A style of text
communication in English which is most common on talk
systems such as irc. Its notable characteristics are:

Typing all in lowercase (and occasionally all in uppercase).

Copious use of abbreviations of the sort "u" for "you" "1" for
"one" (and therefore "some1" for "someone", "ne1" for
"anyone"), "2" for "to", "r" for "are", etc.

A general lack of punctuation, except for strings of question
marks and exclamation marks.

Common use of the idiom "m or f?", meant to elicit a statement
of the listener's gender.

Typical extended discourse in ASCIIbonics: "hey wasup ne1 want
2 cyber?" "m or f?"

ASCIIbonics is similar to the way B1FF talked, although B1FF
used more punctuation (lots more), and used all uppercase,
rather than all lowercase. What's more, B1FF was only
interested in warez, and so never asked "m or f?".

It has been widely observed that some of the purest examples
of ASCIIbonics come from non-native speakers of English.

The phenomenon of ASCIIbonics predates by several years the
use of the word "ASCIIbonics", as the word could only have
been coined in or after late 1996, when "Ebonics" was first
used in the US media to denote the US English dialects known
in the linguistic literature as "Black Vernacular English".
