Dear Walter and friends,

I have been thinking about this recently. Is there a font that
comprises Thai, Sinhala, Burmese, Khmer and Laos scripts (all in
one)? If not, is there an aspiring font designer willing to undertake
the task (now that it is possible to put them all in a single, but
huge, file, with standard presentation)? Or shall we (again) install
different fonts for different scripts?

metta,
Yong Peng.

I'd be particularly interested to have a go at implementing
a 'multiscript' view - ie: allowing a user to view the same Pali text
in a variety of Asian scripts. Mostly this should be fairly
straightforward, though I suppose there's probably a few special code
sequences for various rare glyphs that might require some specialised
rules.
