% \section{Introduction}
%
% The Phoenician alphabet and characters is a direct ancestor of our modern day
% Latin alphabet and fonts. 
% The font presented here is one of a series of fonts intended to show how
% the modern Latin alphabet has evolved from its original Phoenician form
% to its present day appearance.
% 
% This manual is typeset according to the conventions of the
% \LaTeX{} \textsc{docstrip} utility which enables the automatic
% extraction of the \LaTeX{} macro source files~\cite{GOOSSENS94}.
%
%    Section~\ref{sec:usc} describes the usage of the package.
% Commented code for the fonts is in Sections~\ref{sec:mf} and~\ref{sec:fd}
% and source code for the package is in Section~\ref{sec:code}.
%
% \subsection{An alphabetic tree}
%
%    Scholars are reasonably agreed that all the world's alphabets are descended
% from a Semitic alphabet invented about 1600~\BC{} in the Middle 
% East~\cite{DRUCKER95}. The word `Semitic' refers
% to the family of languages used in the geographical area from
% Sinai in the south, up the Mediterranean coast to Asia Minor in the north and
% west to the valley of the Euphrates.
%
%    The Phoenician alphabet was stable by about 1100~\BC{} and the script was
% written right to left. In earlier times the writing direction was variable, 
% and so were
% the shapes and orientation of the characters. The alphabet consisted of
% 22 letters and they were named after things. For example, their first two 
% letters were called \textit{aleph} (ox), and \textit{beth} (house). 
% The Phoenician script had
% only one case --- unlike our modern fonts which have both upper- and 
% lower-cases. In modern terms the Phoenician abecedary was: \\
% A B G D E Y Z H $\Theta$ I K L M N X O P ts Q R S T \\
% where the `Y' (\textit{vau}) character was sometimes written as `F', and
% `ts' stands for the \textit{tsade} character.
%
%    The Greek alphabet is one of the descendants of the Phoenician alphabet;
% another was Aramaic which is the ancestor of the Arabic, Persian and Indian 
% scripts.
% Initially Greek was written right to left but around the 6th C~\BC{} became 
% \textit{boustrophedron}, meaning that the lines 
% alternated in direction. At about 500~\BC{} the writing direction stabilised 
% as left to 
% right. The Greeks modified the Phoenician alphabet to match the vocalisation
% of their language. They kept the Phoenician names of the letters, suitably
% `greekified', so \textit{aleph} became the familar \textit{alpha} and 
% \textit{beth} became \textit{beta}. At this
% point the names of the letters had no meaning. Their were several variants
% of the Greek character glyphs until they were finally fixed in Athens in
% 403~\BC.
% The Greeks did not develop a lower-case 
% script until about 600--700~\AD.
%
%    The Etruscans based their alphabet on the Greek one, and again modified it.
% However, the Etruscans wrote right to left, so their borrowed characters are 
% mirror images of the original Greek ones. Like the Phoenicians, the Etruscan
% script consisted of only one case; they died out before ever needing a
% lower-case script. The Etruscan script was used up until the first century 
% \AD, even though the Etruscans themselves had dissapeared by that time.
% 
%
%    In turn, the Romans based their alphabet on the Etruscan one, but as they 
% wrote left to right, the characters were again mirrored (although the early
% Roman inscriptions are boustrophedron). 
%
%    As the English alphabet is descended from the Roman alphabet
% it has a pedigree of some three and a half thousand years.
%
% \section{The \Lpack{sarabian} package} \label{sec:usc}
%
%    The \thisfont{} alphabet provided by this package is a descendent
% of the Proto-Siniatic or Proto-Canaanite scripts~\cite{HEALEY90}.
% It was used for about 1000 years, from roughly 600~\BC, in Southern
% Arabia.
%
%    The alphabet consisted of 29 letters, but the ordering has no
% relationship to either the Semitic alphabets nor our modern day one.
% Table~\ref{tab} lists, in \thisfont{} alphabetic order, the transliterated
% values of the script. Note that there are many consonontal sounds
% represented that we no longer use. These are the letters with diacritics.

%    The font provided was developed originally by Alan Stanier of
% Essex University. I have made very minor alterations to make it
% easier to use with the LaTeX font selection system.
%
%
% \DescribeMacro{\sarabfamily}
%    This command selects the \thisfont{} font family. The family name is |sarab|.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\textsarab}
% The command |\textsarab{|\meta{text}|}| typesets \meta{text} in the
% \thisfont{} font.
%
%    I have provided two means of accessing the \thisfont{} glyphs:
% (a) by ASCII characters, and (b) via commands. These are shown
% in Table~\ref{tab}.
%
% \DescribeMacro{\translitsarab}
% The command |\translitsarab{|\meta{commands}|}| will typeset the transliteration
% of the \thisfont{} character commands (those in the third column of
% Table~\ref{tab}).
%
% \DescribeMacro{\translitsarabfont}
%     The font used for the transliteration is defined by this macro,
% which is initialised to an italic font (i.e., |\itshape|).

% \section{The Metafont code} \label{sec:mf}
%
%    The code is all in a single file. It is principally Alan Stanier's code, except
% that I have made a few slight modifications to make it easier to use with
% the automatic font generation usually employed by modern LaTeX systems.
%
%    Start off by naming the file and including Stanier's comments.
% 
%    \begin{macrocode}
%<*up>
%%% SARAB10.MF  South Arabian font 10 point design size.

%%% This font was designed by Alan M Stanier      ( alan@essex.ac.uk ),
%%% at Essex University Computer Service, Colchester, Essex CO4 3EA. England.
%%%
%%% If you make significant additions or improvements to the font,
%%% please email me an updated version
%%%
%%% This font was used for several languages in Southern Arabia in the
%%% second millenium BC
%%%

%    \end{macrocode}
%
%    The next part of the original file looked like this:
% \begin{verbatim}
% mg:=1.0;	% CHANGE THIS TO GET DIFFERENT SIZES OF FONT (font size = 10*mg pt)
%
% mode_setup;
% xpensize#:=mg*0.8pt;
% ypensize#:=mg*0.2pt;
% height#:=mg*10pt#;
% width#:=mg*7pt#;
% narrow#:=mg*5.3pt#;
% \end{verbatim}
% but this didn't seem to appeal to MetaFont very much, so I replaced it with:
%    \begin{macrocode}
mode_setup;
font_identifier:="sarabian"; 
font_size:= 10pt#;           % nominally, a 10pt font
font_normal_space:=7pt#;     % width of a blank space
font_normal_shrink:=.9pt#;   % width correction for blank space
font_x_height:=4.5pt#;       % height of one ex
font_quad:=10pt#;            % an em

numeric pmg; pmg:=0.8;            % a scale factor

xpensize#:=pmg*0.8pt;
ypensize#:=pmg*0.2pt;
height#:=pmg*10pt#;
width#:=pmg*7pt#;
narrow#:=pmg*5.3pt#;

mg#:= pmg*0.3pt#;
define_pixels(mg);

numeric cscale;                   % scale factor for original circles
cscale# := mg#;
define_pixels(cscale);
let cmchar=\;

%    \end{macrocode}
% Now continue with the original code.
%    \begin{macrocode}

define_pixels(height,width,narrow);
def getpen = pickup pencircle xscaled xpensize# yscaled ypensize# rotated 30 enddef;

%    \end{macrocode}
% That finishes the simple set up. The rest of the code is for creating
% the character glyphs. It is Stanier's code, except that where he had a
% statement like: \\
% |draw fullcircle scaled 10 shifted(...);| \\
% I modifed it to: \\
% |draw fullcircle scaled(10cscale) shifted(...);| \\
% I also put a |cmchar "comment";| before each glyph code. 

% Note that the
% encoding I use is not the same as Stanier's but does match the encoding
% I use for my other archaic fonts.
