Revival Of Nepal’s Ancient Scripts

So Nepal has a remarkable number of historical writing systems used by
its various languages and ethnic groups. Most of them were repressed
under the Rana dynasty, but some are now making a comeback

I think only one or two of the scripts have encodings in current
Unicode.

The article links to this project
<https://github.com/EkType/Nithya-Ranjana/blob/main/README.md> to
create a font for Ranjana Lipi. In the absence of a script-specific
Unicode encoding, they let you use either the Devanagari or Newa code
blocks.

While you’re at the EkType area on GitHub, their “Honk” font also
looks interesting. ;)
