Hello Khwann Tai,
It is my experience of developing MyMyanmar Unicode System (for
Myanmar Language) that Languages in Myanmar Script blocks of Unicode
Standards are not conveniently used with non-intelligent keyboard
layouts created with Microsoft Keyboard Layout Creator. For example, e-
vowel rearrangement will not work on them. We need to use KeyMan in
the past. Now, I am developing completely new Input Method that I am
trying to support all the Languages in our script block. If I can get
enough information, I will create Shan Input Method supporting
Spelling Checking, Word Breaking, Romanization, etc. This is far
better than Keyboard Layout Driver. My conclusion is that it is very
necessary to work on Software after we get proper Unicode Points or
otherwise it will not make any difference than using legacy fonts/
Keyboard Layouts.
Thanks you you for information about Kayboard Layouts. I will support
all three of them in my softwares. About Anawrahta Font, please don't
worry as we have enough time to test and develop it. And of course, we
need input from many Shans like you. Thanks you.
Regards,
Htoo Myint Naung
