Description hdu@apache.org 2003-11-17 11:05:11 UTC 
This is a followup to issue 14640 and is triggered by issue 15883.
We need to support many more CTL languages in the future and getting the CTL
flag right is a prerequisite for any further development in these languages. I
suggest to add the CTL flag for all new foreseeable CTL scripts at once instead
of on demand. These scripts would be

U+0780..U+07BF Thaana
U+0980..U+09FF Bengali
U+0A00..U+0A7F Gurmukhi
U+0A80..U+0AFF Gujarati
U+0B00..U+0B7F Oriya
U+0B80..U+0BFF Tamil
U+0C00..U+0C7F Telugu
U+0C80..U+0CFF Kannada
U+0D00..U+0D7F Malayalam
U+0D80..U+0DFF Sinhala
U+0E80..U+0EFF Lao
U+0F00..U+0F7F Tibetan
U+1000..U+109F Myanmar
U+1780..U+17FF Khmer

I hope I didn't forget any...

Comment 7 stefan.baltzer 2004-03-08 16:26:55 UTC 
SBA: Here is the list of currently supported Complex scripts:

U+0590..U+05FF Hebrew
U+0600..U+06FF Arabic
U+0700..U+074F Syriac
U+0780..U+07BF Thaana
U+0980..U+09FF Bengali
U+0A00..U+0A7F Gurmukhi
U+0A80..U+0AFF Gujarati
U+0B00..U+0B7F Oriya
U+0B80..U+0BFF Tamil
U+0C00..U+0C7F Telugu
U+0C80..U+0CFF Kannada
U+0D00..U+0D7F Malayalam
U+0D80..U+0DFF Sinhala
U+0E80..U+0EFF Lao
U+0F00..U+0F7F Tibetan
U+1000..U+109F Myanmar

U+1100..U+11FF Hangul Jamo

U+1780..U+17FF Khmer
U+1800..U+18AF Mongolian
U+0900..U+097F Devanagari

U+FB50..U+FDFF Arabic Presentation Forms A
U+FE70..U+FEFF Arabic Presentation Forms B

In CWS i18n09, the following ranged are detected as "Complex":
0590 - 109F  (covers Hebrew to Myanmar)
1780 - 18AF  (covers Khmer to Devanagari)
FB50 - FDFF  (covers Arabic Presentation Forms A)
FE70 - FEFE  (covers Arabic Presentation Forms B)

So the only gap is U+1100..U+11FF (Hangul Jamo). I will write a follow-up up
task for this. Set to verified.
