Does the existing perl5.8.* Unicode support have a way to efficently
determine which script(s) or block (in unicode sense) a code point belongs
to?
In Unicode-aware Tk I am still doing battle with mechanism to select
X11 font to display a particular codepoint (for now glossing over
glyph vs character issues).
The present code is still rather dumb.
It seems to make sense to have a hash which maps script names to
probable (font) encodings
(Hiragana | Katakana | Han) => 'jisx0208.1990-0'
(Greek) => 'iso8859-7',
So give a (1 character) string how do I get Unicode script/block it is in?
