i would like to use the official pIqaD fonts and locales because i am trying to make a new Klingon distro of ubuntu and i would like to know if there is some waty to create my own font for use with ubuntu using the kli glyphs so that way i can move on because the kahless font is fun but not truly klingon and the bernyklingon font is not truly klingon either when this gets resolved let me know at [email protected]. the windows font pIqaD installed but displays as a standard font type (not sure which font) i have the langpack for thl installed but i cant set it as a defalt language due to being an incomplete locale trust me when i say there are more klingons using ubuntu than there are osx and the only reason anyone uses windows is for compatability and conveiniece. also if anyone knows how to get ahold of this "Chris" guy who made the other Thlingbuntu it would be nice to know that as well. --Qa'Pla'-- Andrew C Cross A.K.A.

Also, it would be a nice exercise for the font designers and having at least some support for an obscure constructed language does allow some bragging rights. Having just a few glyphs initially would maybe inspire some Klingon speakers to get involved and develop some more glyphs. Also, when the Khitomer Accords will be signed in 2267 and the Klingons join the Federation, it will be nice to introduce them to Ubuntu and show them that their language is already fully supported, and may strengthen early relations. Some might note that this is against the Temporal Prime Directive, but technically that only takes effect in the 24th century[3].
