-- One day I'll speed this up ... char swapping and properties.

-- A few remarks:
--
-- This code is a partial rewrite of the code that deals with devanagari. The data and logic
-- is by Kai Eigner and based based on Microsoft's OpenType specifications for specific
-- scripts, but with a few improvements. More information can be found at:
--
-- deva: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/OpenType%20Dev/devanagari/introO.mspx
-- dev2: http://www.microsoft.com/typography/OpenType%20Dev/devanagari/intro.mspx
--
-- Rajeesh Nambiar provided patches for the malayalam variant. Thansk to feedback from
-- the mailing list some aspects could be improved.
--
-- As I touched nearly all code, reshuffled it, optimized a lot, etc. etc. (imagine how
-- much can get messed up in over a week work) it could be that I introduced bugs. There
-- is more to gain (esp in the functions applied to a range) but I'll do that when
-- everything works as expected. Kai's original code is kept in font-odk.lua as a reference
-- so blame me (HH) for bugs.
--
-- Interesting is that Kai managed to write this on top of the existing otf handler. Only a
-- few extensions were needed, like a few more analyzing states and dealing with changed
-- head nodes in the core scanner as that only happens here. There's a lot going on here
-- and it's only because I touched nearly all code that I got a bit of a picture of what
-- happens. For in-depth knowledge one needs to consult Kai.
--
-- The rewrite mostly deals with efficiency, both in terms of speed and code. We also made
-- sure that it suits generic use as well as use in ConTeXt. I removed some buglets but can
-- as well have messed up the logic by doing this. For this we keep the original around
-- as that serves as reference. Due to the lots of reshuffling glyphs quite some leaks
-- occur(red) but once I'm satisfied with the rewrite I'll weed them. I also integrated
-- initialization etc into the regular mechanisms.
--
-- In the meantime, we're down from 25.5-3.5=22 seconds to 17.7-3.5=14.2 seconds for a 100
-- page sample (mid 2012) with both variants so it's worth the effort. Some more speedup is
-- to be expected. Due to the method chosen it will never be real fast. If I ever become a
-- power user I'll have a go at some further speed up. I will rename some functions (and
-- features) once we don't need to check the original code. We now use a special subset
-- sequence for use inside the analyzer (after all we could can store this in the dataset
-- and save redundant analysis).
--
-- I might go for an array approach with respect to attributes (and reshuffling). Easier.
--
-- Some data will move to char-def.lua (some day).

-- todo: way more caching of attributes and font

-- Reph’s original position is always at the beginning of the syllable, (i.e. it is not reordered at the character reordering stage).
-- However, it will be reordered according to the basic-forms shaping results.
-- Possible positions for reph, depending on the script, are; after main, before post-base consonant forms,
-- and after post-base consonant forms.

-- 1  If reph should be positioned after post-base consonant forms, proceed to step 5.
-- 2  If the reph repositioning class is not after post-base: target position is after the first explicit halant glyph between
--    the first post-reph consonant and last main consonant. If ZWJ or ZWNJ are following this halant, position is moved after it.
--    If such position is found, this is the target position. Otherwise, proceed to the next step.
--    Note: in old-implementation fonts, where classifications were fixed in shaping engine,
--    there was no case where reph position will be found on this step.
-- 3  If reph should be repositioned after the main consonant: from the first consonant not ligated with main,
--    or find the first consonant that is not a potential pre-base reordering Ra.
-- 4  If reph should be positioned before post-base consonant, find first post-base classified consonant not ligated with main.
--    If no consonant is found, the target position should be before the first matra, syllable modifier sign or vedic sign.
-- 5  If no consonant is found in steps 3 or 4, move reph to a position immediately before the first post-base matra,
--    syllable modifier sign or vedic sign that has a reordering class after the intended reph position.
--    For example, if the reordering position for reph is post-main, it will skip above-base matras that also have a post-main position.
-- 6  Otherwise, reorder reph to the end of the syllable.

-- hm, this only looks at the start of a nodelist ... is this supposed to be line based?
