combined, take a look at teh qx encoding, it already goes in that direction
3) The concept sounds sort of like EC encoding (in its relationship with TS1), but with less of the backwards-compatibility "cruft". Should I take that as a starting point, or work with texnansi?
qx
Okay, looking at it, I'm thinking the following things: - cut out the greek - keep the f-ligatures - keep the punctuation that's part of "typical" text flow: Quotes, Guillemets, exclam, question (up + down), hyphen, en/em dash, comma, period, parens & square brackets, forward slash. (Or, if you're serious about it, cut them all out...) - cut out the rest: math-like, commercial, currency, typographic markers Any preference on the layout? Like QX or rearranged to have glyphs in common with texnansi? -- =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Adam T.
