Codepages that contain all the characters listed above:
  1. 8859-10
  2. 8859-13
  3. 8859-4
  4. CENTEURO
  5. CP1257
  6. CP775

Q, W and X are not used in Lithuanian words.

Demanding publications such as dictionaries, maps, schoolbooks etc need additional diacritical marks to differentiate homographs.

Fot that purpose Lithuanian uses:

Small E and I (also with ogonek) must retain the dot when additional accent mark is added to the character, the use of  ì  and  í  (note the missing dot) is considered unacceptable. [In the two pre-computer era books I saw, the dot was centered on E WITH DOT ABOVE and to the left of acute on E WITH DOT ABOVE AND ACUTE. On both E and I WITH TILDE, the dot moved slightly to the left. There was no dot on I WITH ACUTE and I WITH GRAVE].
A proposal to allocate still missing characters is submitted to the Unicode Consortium.
