New Blog for Tibetan on the Mac
See Tibetan on the Mac, a new blog by Michael Essex that will document all kinds of issues when using MacOSX with Tibetan fonts and other tools.
Many of us use Mac systems for Tibetan editing, so this is a good way to learn about all kinds of issues and tricks. It's been about ten years since I first heard that Unicode will finally work with various operating systems, and I think that day will happen very, very soon. MacOSX 10.4 is close to good, still glyph problem with stacked fonts, but hopefully that is fixed in the next major release.
Meanwhile, check out Michael's great new resource, I will add this one to the blogroll.
