WGL4 contains 657 characters. It is notorious for collectively consisting of many OEM-DOS codepages (but not all characters in WGL4 come from them).

colorcode:

  not in SECS


Note: The previous colorcode (optional/added in OpenType/private use) is removed as it is not any useful. The characters ARE in WGL4, the backstory shouldn't be in a documentation table.

todo: colorcode characters not in MES-1 and characters not in VSECS/SECS

not in MES-1
not in VSECS
not in VSECS or SECS

The two private use[edit]

F001 and F002 are canonically the fi and fl ligatures, same as FB01 and FB02. This wiki documents these two characters in any character set containing WGL4 as having the two characters. Note: if the font repurposes the characters but they still exist (and have the same width if monospaced) then it still contains the character set.
