Hello Meor, >choose sukun for that purpose. However, since 06DF and 06E0 are in the >same group with 06E2 (one of my choosen modifier), it might work, but >I'm not sure what it means to have that sequence.
Actually we recently decided against using sukuun since 06DF or 06E0 are better choices. These silence consonants whereas sukuun indicates that a consonant is vowelless. The analogy of using 06DF or 06E0 is better since symbolically you can think of these codepoints indicating that the noon consonant at the end of the tanween is silenced (or assimilated as Gregg would say). So I don't think we will be proposing the modifier to be sukuun, which turns out to be a not so fit analogy. That should help you avoid the problem with the current MS implementation. You can see examples of 06DF and 06E0 here: http://www.unicode.org/review/pr-73-arabic.jpg (The Unicode Arabic code chart displays the wrong glyphs for 06DF and 06E0, the above are accurate. Tom made a proposal on this and God willing the code chart will be fixed for Unicode 5.0). Regards, Mete -- Mete Kural Touchtone Corporation 714-755-2810 --
