There's a LaTeX package...
Anyway, thnx for mentioning LinLibertine, Wolfgang; downloding it now.
Unfortunately they don't have a monospace font :-( For serious utf-8 work
in an editor it's indispensable. I'm using Arial Unicode MS in the
meantime (ugh).
SC Unipad has the best and most complete unicode editing font out there
(both mono and var options) but it's a bitmap and tied to the application.
SIL has some pretty complete fonts as well. Doulos is pretty complete as
far as Latin extensions are concerned, and is probably the richest font
after Arial Unicode (which is still over an order of magnitude bigger).
But the idea of a virtual uniode font is a good idea and I'd like to help.
Best wishes
Idris
