Info Share

    richard: been feeling guilty about work on language enablement
    ... doing process and backlog, etc.
    ... so last few days making concerted effort to learn about
    tamil
    ... and pull info from IIP together
    ... and updating gap analyis docs
    ... fallout is researching tamil in own time

    <r12a> [15]https://r12a.github.io/scripts/tamil/

      [15] https://r12a.github.io/scripts/tamil/

    richard: accumulating information here to put in layout
    requirements
    ... started writing doc on segmentation of text in south asian
    languages
    ... forget about orthographic syllables, don't work the way you
    think
    ... issue caused by grapheme clusters has nothing to do with
    code points
    ... has to do with what font does
    ... like consonent consonent vowel
    ... consonent virama consonent vowel segments after virama
    ... etc.
    ... what makes diff is making conjuncts
    ... those don't break when you wrap
    ... can't work ut from the code points
    ... some examples in tamil illustrate also that segmentation
    may not be grapheme cluster related at all, but glyph related
    ... in a single column in fully justified text
    ... short word but nothing else fits and they use
    intercharacter spacing
    ... does it on "certain glyphs"
    ... if the ink is not attanched then put space, but don't if
    there attachment
    ... again, nothing to do with code points; just glyph

    addison: so this is like half forms don't break but non
    conjuncts do

    richard: old indic doc had an ABNF
    ... didn't work for tamil
    ... or other south indian language
    ... and often not in north indian languages too!

https://w3c.github.io/i18n-tests/css-text/line-breaking/exp-generic-line-break-000.html

    <r12a> working on a new, very simple format for tests that can
    be used for gap-analysis or for spinning up the normal fixed
    tests: starts with a language-anonymous test page like that in
    the link above, plus a script which captures an assertion, test
    data, and results and is written as a simple editable file such
    as

    -break-&-word-break (see below)

    <r12a> line-break:anywhere should break before U+0BC8: TAMIL
    VOWEL SIGN AI

    <r12a> , not before the U+0BB1: TAMIL LETTER RRA that begins
    the consonant cluster. It should wrap the vowel-sign together
    with the preceding consonant.

    <r12a> யாவற்றையும்
