I beg your pardon! "this n with a ~ above it" is the 25th letter of the Spanish alphabet, and means to me exactly the same as any other letter of the alphabet could.

Has the code any relation with Spanish? I mean, is there a list of names or something like that? If not may be they used it for other purposes.
