I would like to discuss the possibility of adding letters from the
Karen alphabet to the Burmese script block in unicode. It is my
intention to begin authorship of a Karen education syllabus and to do
this I need the foundations of a universal writing code.
Mr Christian Bauer appears to have done some work in this area and I
would welcome communication with him and other people who may have done
some work in this area.
The second interest I have is in the development of word processing
tools that utilize the contents of unicode. I use a Macintosh with OSX
installed. The basic language packages are very good but they do not
have the Burmese script included. I would like to develop a writing
tool that is similar to the Japanese ことえりwhere phonetics are typed in
and drop down windows offer suggested scripts or fonts.
I may be contacted via email at hbatterham@mac.com and I look forward
to further communications.
regards
Heath Batterham
