;;; Regular expressions to split characters for composition.
;;;
;;
;; Indian script word contains one or more syllables.
;; In BNF, it can be expressed as follows:
;;
;; Word ::= {Syllable} [Cons-Syllable]
;; Syllable ::= Cons-Vowel-Syllable | Vowel-Syllable
;; Vowel-Syllable ::= V[D]
;; Cons-Vowel-Syllable ::= [Cons-Syllable] Full-Cons [M] [D]
;; Cons-Syllable ::= [Pure-Cons] [Pure-Cons] Pure-Cons
;; Pure-Cons ::= Full-Cons H
;; Full-Cons ::= C [N]
;;
;; {} repeat, [] optional
;;
;; C - Consonant ($(5!3!4!5!6!7!8!9!:!;!<!=!>!?!@!A!B!C!D!E(B
;;                $(5!F!G!H!I!J!K!L!M!N!O!P!Q!R!S!T!U!V!W!X(B)
;; N - Nukta ($(5!i(B)
;; H - Halant($(5!h(B)
;; V - Vowel ($(5!$!%!&!'!(!)!*!+!,!-!.!/!0!1!2(B)
;; D - Vowel Modifiers, i.e. Anuswar, Chandrabindu, Visarg  ($(5!!!"(B)
;; M - Matra ($(5!Z![!\!]!^!_!`!a!b!c!d!e!f!g(B)
;;
;; In Emacs, one syllable of Indian language is considered to be one 
;; composite glyph.  If we expand the above expression, it would be:
;;
;; [[C [N] H] [C [N] H] C [N] H] C [N] [M] [D] | V [D]
;; 
;; Therefore, in worst case, the consonant syllabe will consist of
;; following characters.
;;
;; C N H C N H C N H C N M D
;;
;; On the other hand, incomplete consonant syllable before inputting
;; base consonant must satisfy the following condition:
;;
;; [C [N] H] [C [N] H] C [N] H
;;
;; This is acceptable BEFORE proper consonant-syllable is input.  The
;; string which doesn't match with the above expression is invalid and
;; thus must be fixed.
;;
;; Note:
;; Third case can be considered, which is acceptable syllable and can
;; not add any code more.
;;
;; [[C [N] H] [C [N] H] C [N] H] C [N] [M] D
;;
;; However, to make editing possible even in this condition, we will
;; not consider about this case.

;; Steps toward the composition
;;  Converting Character Code to Composite Glyph.
;;
;; Example : $(5!X![(B/$(5!F!h!D!\(B
;; 
;; First, convert Characters to appropriate glyphs.
;;
;; => $(5!X![(B/$(5"F!D!\(B
;;
;; Then, determine the base glyph, apply-orders and apply-rules.
;;
;; => $(5!X(B (ml.mr) $(5![(B / $(5!D(B (ml.mr) $(5"F(B (mr ml) $(5!\(B
;;
;; Finally, convert 2-column glyphs to 1-column glyph
;; if such a glyph exist.
;;
;; => $(6![(B (ml.mr) $(6!X(B / $(6!D(B (ml.mr) $(6"F(B (mr ml) $(6!\(B
;;
;; Compose the glyph.
;;
;; => 2$(6!X@![1(B/2$(6!D@"FP!\1(B
;; => 2$(6!X@![12!D@"FP!\1(B

;;        There may be many rules which you many want to be suppressed.
;;        In that case, please comment out that rule.
;;
;;        RULES WILL BE EVALUATED FROM FIRST TO LAST.
;;        PUT MORE SPECIFIC RULES FIRST.
;;
;; TO DO: 
;;        Prepare multiple specific list of rules for each languages
;;        which adopts Devanagari script.
