Foreign Function Interface in LuaTeX
Hans shown how to use luaffi to connect to (the shared lib version of
) harfbuzz
plus a comparison of context vs harfbuzz vs uniscribe text shaping engines
(experimental, and only under windows , but definitively something to
develop further, being very useful for font development).
Thanks, I'll watch this space. Hopefully someone will also make it work
in Linux.
FWIW, now that I know what to look for, I see there are a couple-three
(maybe more) other projects aimed at making LuaTeX work together with
HarfBuzz (probably not all under active development):
