    The PROEL page has exhibits from both the Bible and the Koran.

    Should a font for Vai include U+066D - ARABIC FIVE POINTED STAR?
    Other special characters for the Koran?

    These apparently older exhibits, as Peter Constable pointed out
    initially, do not use word dividers. The Bible exhibit could have
    been left and right justified, but wasn't. This suggests that if
    line-breaking isn't triggered by the space character, some kind
    of dictionary look-up would be needed.

    Best regards,
