This is (I assume intentionally) a funny way of putting it. They didn't have to be "unified", because they were never considered to be distinct. It's hard to imagine why anyone would want to derive the Latin alphabet by doing a new, independent survey of existing fonts when everyone, even children, already know the alphabet. In summary, I don't think readability has anything to do with it. Edmund -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
