Clone of Braille (Basic). I swapped the hollow circles for small dots.
Special characters: There are no capital letters in Braille. Instead, there is a symbol for "capital letter follows," which I have placed in the "at" (@) symbol. The "number follows" symbol is usually placed in the space for the "number" symbol (#), so I've followed that convention. In addition, I have copied the symbol for each letter into both the upper and lower case spaces, to make it easier to type something up (or select an existing text file) and switch the font to Braille (Basic) Alternate.

Chainlink Visible Braille.
Type in lower case.
Shift+C = capital letter follows,
+N = number follows,
+Q = opening question mark,
+H = contraction for "ch",
+S = contraction for "sh",
+T = contraction for "th",
+7 (&) = contraction for the word "and".
I've put place markers on the characters "capital letter follows" (horizontal bars in positions 1 & 3) and "apostrophe" (vertical bars in positions 4 & 6) as an aide to distinguishing the two characters.

Based on the Moon alphabet for the blind devised by William Moon (1818-1894). Use lower case for all letters, except for "wh" (shift +w), "ch" (shift +c), "th" (shift + t), "and" (shift +7), and "numerical sign" (shift +n).
P.s. I've decided to change the name from MoonGlow to MoonType as I've discovered that there's a commercial font available with the former name.

It's Braille font, font for dlind people. The Braille system was based on a method of communication originally developed by Charles Barbier in response to Napoleon's demand for a code that soldiers could use to communicate silently and without light at night called night writing.

Do you know the embossed printing?
Yes, another name is "BRAILLE".
That was my inspiration.

Is a curious font that can learn the positions of the six dots used in the Braille alphabet with small letters in each symbol that represents that symbol

This uses the actual Braille alphabet with some symbols above the Braille "pattern" stating what they are. For example, the "LETTER SHIFT" pattern is shown as an 'up' arrow with a line at the bottom. Some patterns are shared between characters, like A-I and J, and, 1-9 and 0, respectively. The difference is that for the letters nothing precedes it, BUT, for the numbers it is preceded by the 'number' modifier (has a pound sign above it, #). The open-quotation marks and the question point also share the same pattern, and its placement determines what it is. For example, "HELLO" would be the quote marks, but 'what“' would be a question point. If there are any other questions, you know who to contact.

Braille Level One, no contractions. Please note that I am not a Braille expert and there are likely mistakes, and it is very hard to produce acceptable Braille using this font. This is more for fun. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS FONT AS A GUIDE FOR PRODUCING REAL BRAILLE IN ANY IMPORTANT SITUATIONS...
Problems include: Not all punctuation is listed. Also, a number which is longer than one digit would not need to be prefixed with the number marker before every digit, only once. There are many conventions to Braille that this simplistic font will make hard to obey.

Sort of Braille, sort of simpler, but will take a little getting used to.

Use the keys QAZWSX to create dots. Use space to move to the next letter, or two spaces in a row to move to the next word. Note that 'user input' does not work properly here.

These are all of the letters, numbers, and symbols that I could find in my research. I hope that they are accurate and that this font will provide you all with a basic Braille font.
