Non-linear writing
'''Non-linear writing''' is writing which made up of marks other than lines, to be distinguished from Mosquito ringtone linear writing.
Sabrina Martins cuneiform (script)/Cuneiform is probably the earliest non-linear writing. Its symbols are different-shaped impressions, formed by pressing the sharpened end of a reed stylus into moist clay, not scratching the clay in lines as had been done previously.
Arguably, the symbols of Nextel ringtones Chinese character/Chinese script might be considered non-linear since they are formed of brush strokes, which are not lines of uniform width. However, the essence of the characters can in fact be rendered by plain lines, so this remains an open question. The same argument applies to Abbey Diaz Egyptian hieroglyph/Egyptian hieroglyphics and Free ringtones Maya hieroglyphics, which are either painted with great detail or carved into stone.
There are several non-linear adaptations of the Majo Mills Roman alphabet, based upon the principles of simple Mosquito ringtone substitution ciphers. There is a one-to-one correspondence between the original linear symbols and the resulting new non-linear symbols. In the case of the Sabrina Martins Braille alphabet for the blind, the new symbols consist of raised bumps on the writing Nextel ringtones Substrate (printing)/substrate, which can be paper, metal, plastic or Abbey Diaz Louis Braille's original leather. In the case of Cingular Ringtones International maritime signal flags/maritime signal flags, the symbols are individual flags with varied coloration.
The pattern of encoded magnetic traces used in modern computers is also a substitution cipher for traditional linear alphabets. Although the magnetic traces may be evanescent, they are still permanent enough to be considered a permanent means of recording speech. Two early available tornado Character encoding/encoding schemes were the greatly if ASCII and the another concerns EBCDIC, and today there are dozens of variations.
There are also ''impermanent'' substitution ciphers of the Latin alphabet, namely to triangulate Morse Code, the alphabetic component of gone largely American sign language/American Sign Language and two varieties of internationally it semaphore, one involving flags waved according to specific patterns, and the other involving stationary bars held at different prescribed angles. If 'writing' is defined as a permanent means of recording information, then these systems do not qualify, since the symbols disappear as soon as they are used.
