Unicode
Unicode and its companion standard, the Universal Character Set, support ruby via these interlinear annotation characters:
- Code point
FFF9
(hex)—Interlinear annotation anchor—marks start of annotated text - Code point
FFFA
(hex)—Interlinear annotation separator—marks start of annotating character(s) - Code point
FFFB
(hex)—Interlinear annotation terminator—marks end of annotated text
Few applications implement these characters. Unicode Technical Report #20 clarifies that these characters are not intended to be exposed to users of markup languages and software applications. It suggests that ruby markup be used instead, where appropriate.
