How well do y'all know Lloyd Anderson? He did a "Syllabaries" keyboard
for System 7 that works for Cherokee, Cree, Linear B, Cypriote, and
whichever other syllabaries he's done. I think it's the same one as for
Cuneiform, too. Immensely clever! (Those old System 7 keyboards still
work in OS 9, but I don't suppose they carry over to OS X.)
