Links to my tools and source

This page links to a mixture of different things:

General shell tools, etc.

Bash or perl scripts, data about Unicode, data about some non-Unicode
labels (for when trying to find which Small Caps are in a font)
Shell scripts, etc.

Templates I use for looking at a font with LuaLaTeX or XeLaTeX.

I have a number of different templates, several are only working
documents where the formatting of the PDF is not important.

• language-full and languages-sc - I cut these down to the languages
  the font, or its small caps (-sc), supports.
• languages-italic - to determine available italics and small cap italics.
• Hangul-Hanja - to determine how much of the Korean Hanja allowed
  for names in RoK, and which I can identify, is supported.
• {CN,JP,TW}-test : attempt to discover if a font supports a language
  (Unified Han and Extension A, not later extensions) using all the
  reliable test text I could find.

Files for Unicode-15.1.0

For unicode-blocks and generate-all-characters files from before I learned
about the mess in combining codepoints: old-unicode/

Tools which need to be compiled.

For trying to work out which codepoints are in a file I use get_codepoints,
and for separating a TTC into TTF files I now use my adaptation of getfonts.
These, both individual files and tarballs, are in
Programs to compile (Last tested with gcc-14.1).

Creating the Lipsum files.

There are various XeLaTeX files in lipsum.tex but many are old and might not
compile with recent TeXLive. For monospace and one language where I lack
XeLaTeX source there are old LibreOffice Writer files which I used to create
PDFs, at lipsum.odt.

Source for the substitutes files.

The XeLaTeX source files for the revised PDF Substitutes files are at
substitutes-tex.

If you have not read H2G2 you might need to read hitchhikers fandom
to understand that when I say I hope this does not turn into
      'go stick your head in a pig'
I am not being insulting, just remembering plans do not always succeed.
