The one issue is that it relies heavily on font ligatures. I'll have to 
try it on 2.19.83.


It doesn’t work for me in 2.19.83 but it does work in 2.21.0.

The input of these ligatures becomes PITA when you change keyboard layout. Try 
that with a Dvorak keyboard.

I’m not knowledgeable enough to judge if taking the shapes and convert it into 
a proper notefont to be used by LP is worth the effort.
