>> Unicode is meant for the printed text, is it not ?
As John Hudson and Christopher Fynn point out, I should not have put it that
way.
>>So generally speaking there is no reason to encode any Greek ligatures or
tachygraphical forms, since ligation is a display issue not a plain text
encoding issue.
On the other hand Unicode seems set to include many glyphs found in papyri
(including the Greek zero that I proposed two years ago), which are not
recognized as ligatures, just symbols of one sort or another.
