Glomphosche

Glomphosche

Glomphosche is a simple mod that visually ligates or compose supported character or Unicode code point sequences into supported ligatures.

Alpha Usage

This mod is currently in Alpha testing. The composition system is already
working, though needing polishing and possibly improved capabilities that can be
built on top with.

Characters

| Item | Pre-composed Unicode | Unifont Extension | Custom Font | Notes |
|:—:|:—:|:—:|:—:|:—|
| Tagalog Block | N/A | WIP | ✅ | Since 0.1.0. To display characters with vowel markers, viramas, and pamudpod, a custom font is used. The base characters are also replaced, overriding the default from Unifont. |
| Modern Hangul Jamo | ✅ | TBD | ❌ | Since 0.2.0. Visually handles valid jamo sequence as pre-composed syllable, which the in-game Unifont supports. |
| Hanuno’o Block | N/A | WIP | ✅ | Since 0.2.1. Custom font relacement and to support displaying vowel markers and pamudpod. |

Technicals

The internals are still being polished. You can check the first few lines of
the GlomphoscheImpl class and even the mentioned Node classes there that you
may find of interest.

class Example
{

void initialize()
{
// register modern Hangul Jamo handler, or your own handler
// for a different use, if you implemented one
GlomphoscheImpl.ROOT
    .inner()
    .add(new ComposableHangulJamoNode());

// the letter 'f'
DiscreteNode node1 = GlomphoscheImpl.LOOKUP.withDiscrete('f');
// the theoretical glyph 'fi'
DiscreteNode node2 = node1.withDiscrete('i');
// register the font that retextures 'f' as the glyph representing 'fi'
node2.fontOverride(FontDescription.DEFAULT); // replace with your own

// This one is for 'ffi' by retexturing 'f'
GlomphoscheImpl.ROOT
    .withDiscrete('f')
    .withDiscrete('f')
    .withDiscrete('i')
    // replace with your own
    .fontOverride(FontDescription.DEFAULT);
}
