The following table ~~(under construction) shows the symbols and describes their function~~. The terms in the glyph name sections reflect absolute displacements, <code>-</code> means down, <code>+</code> means up. Furthermore, symbols with multiple names will have both names sharing the same cell. The choice between the primary and secondary glyphs for any given step is often determined both by absolute TE error and by harmonic and melodic context for any given score, particularly as the primary and secondary glyphs usually reflect different intervals in Just Intonation.

The following table illustrates modification of a given tone by accidentals up to 30 steps of 159edo. The terms in the glyph name sections reflect absolute displacements, <code>–</code> means down, <code>+</code> means up. Furthermore, symbols with multiple names will have both names sharing the same cell. The choice between the primary and secondary glyphs for any given step is often determined both by absolute TE error and by harmonic and melodic context for any given score, particularly as the primary and secondary glyphs usually reflect different intervals in Just Intonation. For reference, the just whole tone interval, [[9/8]], is mapped to 27 steps of 159 edo (or 9 steps of [[53edo]]). The corresponding interval is (27*1200/159=) 203.77 cents (0.2 cents flat).
