lojban and Klingon

Revision 3:

List of changes:

• new S family: not too intrusive and can't get lost. C, Z, J follow.
• 'Broken' letters, so you can mark them without backtracking

• Revived small vowels (as if you noticed they were big)
• Revived regular kerning, it actually helps the prettiness a lot.

• M and N are reunited
• L and R are also reunited, but as a modified rev2 L, not the old rev1 loop. L3 has a pronounced curve on the second stroke to help distinguish from E

• X is the same but different - it's actually about halfway between X1 and X2
• .y'y returns to the 'small flicked gap" character because it looks better and maintains the relationship between .y'y and xy

List of non-changes:

• Unmarked consonants
• K/G

• glottal stop characters
• stress-bar

About 'Breaking' the marked characters:

• This is to let you write the flick diacritic without backtracking after you've finished the word. You use the pen-lift provided by the break in the line to write the flick, that way you don't backtrack or have to rejoin your broken inter-lerfu line. A demonstration:

(J3 included for good measure)

Some examples, good sir:

I'm quite pleased with this one, hopefully Rev4 will be a minor aesthetic tweak and then everyone can have the font. Hoorah! Read IRC logs in CRAZY scripty Lojban like you never could before.
