[sword-devel] Unicode Normalization

By default, modules made using our module tools (e.g. osis2mod) are UTF-8
encoded and normalized to NFC.

Some modules such as Biblical Hebrew really ought NOT to be normalized at
all.

It may be a useful reminder for any modules made without normalization to
include this line in the .conf file.

Normalization=Custom

The default would be to assume that

Normalization=NFC

Please discuss.

NB. The relevant background (with a link) is already in our wiki. See
https://crosswire.org/wiki/Fonts#Hebrew

Or go straight to page 9 of 
https://www.sbl-site.org/Fonts/SBLHebrewUserManual1.5x.pdf


Best regards,

David
