Hi Again,
I am now trying to grock LuaTeX otfload, that is ContTexts font loading system.
From what I have understood so far in order get things started is a
GDEF-feature
and GPOS Lookup support in the font.loader and font-otf.lua.
Do you know off hand, if these features are already implemented

But that is not Nastaliq specific (Arabic Typesetting uses cursive
attachments extensively too, my Naskh font uses them occasionally as
well). So, any sufficiently complex font will have issues with such
engines, Nastaliq or not.

I didnot say it's Nastaleeq-specific, or exclusive to Nastaleeq. But Nastaleeq
is possibly the most relevant script variant that heavily relies on cursive
attachment in OpenType.

It's just as with DVI output. (I presume DVI and XDV must be related somehow.)

LuaTeX itself has a documentation. The font loader code used by

Hello.
I would certainly try to contribute financially (though now isn't the best
time!) for someone (or a team) to develop a 'custom kerning' feature that
would allow XeTeX users to add to and modify the kerning pairs of a font

Those papers are nice and can help in general understanding, but
