The Quest text font now has various chess sorts included within it.

There are both the regular Unicode chess pieces, so that one may mention a
piece and show its symbol in text and there are also a number of sorts in
the Private Use Area with which one may build up chess diagrams.

The code point allocations are detailed in the following pages.

The Quest text font also includes characters for a number of languages,
including Old English, Middle English, Esperanto, Welsh, Estonian and
Maltese.
