This is a 22-character script with one-to-one correspondence with a pre�ncoded script, that uses the same sounds as that script and even the same spelling in the major languages that use that script, and which people who work with the older version generally encode in the newer version and print in the modern style. (This differs from the difference between Fraktur and Roman fonts because there isn't an exact one-to-one correspondence between the two; the long-s disappeared and the essett was added.) That sounds like a font difference to me. Now, there definitely is a rational basis for the proposal, but if you think the objections have no rational basis, you need to grow up and pay attention to what other people are saying instead of dissmissing it off-hand as "political pressure". -- ___________________________________________________________ Sign-up for Ads Free at Mail.com http://promo.mail.com/adsfreejump.htm
