For some reason the alphabet table which I posted, and copied to Philippe, has not appeared on the list, nor has it been returned to me as rejected (as it might have been for being too large). So let me summarise the main parts of the table in an HTML table (I have selected only four of the 11 variant alphabets in the original table):Peter, I'd like to make a summary of all these letters, by using the classification found in the alphabets image for Azeri that you sent to the list:

* This is the unencoded "dotless i with retroflex hook".
I note an incorrect glyph for U+0185 in Code2000 and in Arial Unicode MS; this looks like b with no serif at the bottom but should be much shorter, like Ñ, the Cyrillic soft sign. The Arial Unicode MS glyph for U+04BB is also incorrect - it should look identical to Latin h - but this problem is well known.
The order here is of the English transliteration in the original table, which I have replaced with IPA.
