-- The original basemode ligature builder used the names of components
-- and did some expression juggling to get the chain right. The current
-- variant starts with unicodes but still uses names to make the chain.
-- This is needed because we have to create intermediates when needed
-- but use predefined snippets when available. To some extend the
-- current builder is more stupid but I don't worry that much about it
-- as ligatures are rather predicatable.
--
-- Personally I think that an ff + i == ffi rule as used in for instance
-- latin modern is pretty weird as no sane person will key that in and
-- expect a glyph for that ligature plus the following character. Anyhow,
-- as we need to deal with this, we do, but no guarantes are given.

-- this is still somewhat preliminary and it will get better in due time;
-- much functionality could only be implemented thanks to the husayni font
-- of Idris Samawi Hamid to who we dedicate this module.

-- in retrospect it always looks easy but believe it or not, it took a lot
-- of work to get proper open type support done: buggy fonts, fuzzy specs,
-- special made testfonts, many skype sessions between taco, idris and me,
-- torture tests etc etc ... unfortunately the code does not show how much
-- time it took ...

-- todo:
--
-- kerning is probably not yet ok for latin around dics nodes
-- extension infrastructure (for usage out of context)
-- sorting features according to vendors/renderers
-- alternative loop quitters
-- check cursive and r2l
-- find out where ignore-mark-classes went
-- default features (per language, script)
-- handle positions (we need example fonts)
-- handle gpos_single (we might want an extra width field in glyph nodes because adding kerns might interfere)

--[[ldx--
<p>This module is a bit more split up that I'd like but since we also want to test
with plain <l n='tex'/> it has to be so. This module is part of <l n='context'/>
and discussion about improvements and functionality mostly happens on the
<l n='context'/> mailing list.</p>

<p>The specification of OpenType is kind of vague. Apart from a lack of a proper
free specifications there's also the problem that Microsoft and Adobe
may have their own interpretation of how and in what order to apply features.
In general the Microsoft website has more detailed specifications and is a
better reference. There is also some information in the FontForge help files.</p>

<p>Because there is so much possible, fonts might contain bugs and/or be made to
work with certain rederers. These may evolve over time which may have the side
effect that suddenly fonts behave differently.</p>

<p>After a lot of experiments (mostly by Taco, me and Idris) we're now at yet another
implementation. Of course all errors are mine and of course the code can be
improved. There are quite some optimizations going on here and processing speed
is currently acceptable. Not all functions are implemented yet, often because I
lack the fonts for testing. Many scripts are not yet supported either, but I will
look into them as soon as <l n='context'/> users ask for it.</p>

<p>Because there are different interpretations possible, I will extend the code
with more (configureable) variants. I can also add hooks for users so that they can
write their own extensions.</p>

<p>Glyphs are indexed not by unicode but in their own way. This is because there is no
relationship with unicode at all, apart from the fact that a font might cover certain
ranges of characters. One character can have multiple shapes. However, at the
<l n='tex'/> end we use unicode so and all extra glyphs are mapped into a private
space. This is needed because we need to access them and <l n='tex'/> has to include
then in the output eventually.</p>

<p>The raw table as it coms from <l n='fontforge'/> gets reorganized in to fit out needs.
In <l n='context'/> that table is packed (similar tables are shared) and cached on disk
so that successive runs can use the optimized table (after loading the table is
unpacked). The flattening code used later is a prelude to an even more compact table
format (and as such it keeps evolving).</p>

<p>This module is sparsely documented because it is a moving target. The table format
of the reader changes and we experiment a lot with different methods for supporting
features.</p>

<p>As with the <l n='afm'/> code, we may decide to store more information in the
<l n='otf'/> table.</p>

<p>Incrementing the version number will force a re-cache. We jump the number by one
when there's a fix in the <l n='fontforge'/> library or <l n='lua'/> code that
results in different tables.</p>

<p>This chain stuff is somewhat tricky since we can have a sequence of actions to be
applied: single, alternate, multiple or ligature where ligature can be an invalid
one in the sense that it will replace multiple by one but not neccessary one that
looks like the combination (i.e. it is the counterpart of multiple then). For
example, the following is valid:</p>

<typing>
<line>xxxabcdexxx [single a->A][multiple b->BCD][ligature cde->E] xxxABCDExxx</line>
</typing>

<p>Therefore we we don't really do the replacement here already unless we have the
single lookup case. The efficiency of the replacements can be improved by deleting
as less as needed but that would also mke the code even more messy.</p>

In the previously defined reader (the one resulting in a <l n='tfm'/>

this time based on id. We could combine this in one cache but this does
not gain much. By the way, passing id's back to in the callback was
