Breaking lines at Grapheme Boundaries

2019-07-19 Thread Richard Wordingham via Unicode
If a renderer claims to support a writing system, should it render the
text reasonably if its client breaks lines at extended grapheme
cluster boundaries?

The writing system itself has no compunction about
breaking lines between legacy grapheme clusters, though I've no idea
how I should get a mere word-processor to implement some of these line
breaks.  (The big problem here is that Indic reordering would be
required around the line break.)

Richard.

Are these things still linked from the top homepage yet?
Thank you very much for the information.  (My gut feeling is that
it is tremendous that very highly qualified people care for such
vanities.)

I hopefully will come to truly Unicode the things i do!!
(By then programming will hopefully be true fun again.  I hope..)

A nice weekend i wish, from soon sunny again Germany!
