Current list of unresolved problems.

Capitalization

Currently there doesn't seem to be an uppercase for the Cherokee syllabary in the Unicode character set, yet this typesetting appears in practice in documents. The uppercase is the same shape as the lowercase except that the character is scaled 25% larger.

An expert in fonts constructed a special uppercase font for use in the PDF's. It isn't officially released yet, but will likely be freely available when he feels it is ready.

Keyboard Entry

Currently a US region keyboard is used to enter the syllabary symbols using latin characters representing the Cherokee syllables.

I wrote a C program that reads a text file where syllables are separated by hyphens and converts them to Unicode Cherokee symbols. The inputs and outputs of this program are published on most of the pages on this document.

If a keyboard that had all symbols, numbers and the puntuations ().,[];:'"`?! I could find at least a two-fold increase in typing performance. I have been toying with the idea of modifying an old keyboard and toying with the scancodes to create a keyboard, but have not proceeded in that direction.
