  Basic Multilingual Plane
  BMP
  
     <text, standard> (BMP) The first plane defined in
     Unicode/ISO 10646, designed to include all scripts in
     active modern use.  The BMP currently includes the Latin,
     Greek, Cyrillic, Devangari, hiragana, katakana, and Cherokee
     scripts, among others, and a large body of mathematical,
     APL-related, and other miscellaneous characters.  Most of
     the Han ideographs in current use are present in the BMP,
     but due to the large number of ideographs, many were placed in
     the Supplementary Ideographic Plane.

     <file format, graphics> Microsoft Windows bitmap format.
     Bmp files may use run-length encoding.
  
     This is the only graphics format where compression actually
     enlarges the file.  The format is widely used nonetheless.
