***Requires that your OS cope with 'Astral Planes' (i.e. Unicode characters past hex 0xFFFF), which is where Tengwar keeps good company with Etruscan and Deseret --- though also Musical notations (including Byzantine and Gregorian neumes), Hieroglyphs, Mayan, and the oodles of Cantonese-specific characters that wouldn't fit below 0xFFFF. Making it cope is non-trivial in several instances.

****''Huh? Tengwar currently starts at 0xE000'' That's the Private Use section of Unicode, which means it's not intended as a permanent solution or canonical mapping. The proposal proper is for 0x1xxxx, and has not yet been approved. It will likelier fare better than Klingon pIqaD, though... :-(

I'm generally interested in lojban for the technical aspects of it. I'm quite intruigued with the nature of its grammar and am working on a few projects involving it, technically:

  1. Lojban diphone speech synthesizer
  1. someday an implementation of samtrosku or something similar

humans could hide secret messages in the ZOI delimiters and

the computers would never know.
