      koeberlin I thought I’d challenge myself to see how far in koeberlin’s Latin S character set for African languages I could get today. I got through >80 glyphs. Those remaining are currency symbols which will take a little more time. This adds support for ~100 languages & ~200M speakers
      oh my god twitter doesn’t include alt text from images in their API

        koeberlin I use the Glyph Construction extension for RoboFontCanThis to quickly build accented glyphs. These are the Glyph Construction formulas I made for the Latin S character set, if anyone is interested: gist.github.com/cjdunn/5dcdb313e8f877018fd4c073503e8248

        koeberlin These are not perfect, I can already see things that need adjusting. And I have questions regarding the curls on letters like: ƁƊƘƝƳƙƴɓɗɲ But it’s encouraging to see what can be done in a day. I’d be curious to hear from others working with these char. sets, esp. native speakers
