Are there any plan in forseeable future (10 years) to port Rune to other platforms (win, mobile/tablet, ..)?

The story about line wrapping is mainly that, you: · Break the text into runs. · Calculate BiDi at paragraph level. · Shape every run to get its length and possible line breaking points. · Arrange the runs (now only have length, h

Let me count all the features that a proper rich text box should support: · Input methods, including... · Composing IME · Speech · Handwriting · Emoji picker · Complex text rendering, including... · Bid

I don't see any references to things like HarfBuzz or DWRITE, which are NECESSARY to properly display any scripts that's not European. All properly implemented text editors are rich text — because you will need to support font

DWRITE is very extensible so you can always implement an IDWriteTextRenderer and do all the magic staff in it. Link: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/desktop/directwrite...

Rich text editors' complexity is far beyond ordinary programmer's imagination, especially when complex script (like Arabic) is in it. It is really good to see they have RTL support. -- However they messed up when using composing I

You have to know that the MSFT may not have the source code of Equation Editor, since it is a simplified version of MathType.

The website works well in Edge but you claimed that it does not support that. I have to override the user agent in order to access your editor.

You say you have dependent types OK, could you define this? data Eq : {a : Type} -> a -> a -> Type where Refl : Eq x x sym : {x : a} -> {y : a} -> Eq x y -> Eq y x sym Refl = Refl replace : {a :

So where is the famous Idris elaborator? Where are the universes? Where’s inductive types? Where are they?

Iosevka does not have `fi` ligature. The "Term" variant is used for some restricted environments, like some Linux would think that Iosevka is not monospace due to it has glyphs wider than one space.

by be5invis 9y ago
To be honest, Iosevka is not suitable for the current VF specification, because that it does not support changing glyph topology while changing parameters.

Do you know that all letters in Iosevka are EXACTLY 1/2 em wide? For ASIAN users, you can use THIS and preserve your perfect alignment.

I think Hanlon's Razor can be applied to this example: They just do not think that encryption is important. It is real for Chinese companies.

It reminds me the format of fonts. That is, your font is actually a program, a program used to draw shapes. There are even subroutine calls in it, and it is widely used to reduce file size.

Tested using Edge on r14393, and the demo returns “Not vulnerable”. There is a SEC7111 error in the console.

First you have to remember that China itself's population is as large as the entire western world, so things are completely different here. For example, almost nobody in China use credit card for online payment: they use Alipay as an a

Autohinting is hard, especially for ideographs. My hinter even used differential evolution to calculate how strokes should be placed. (link: github.com/be5invis/sfdhanautohint)
