#Software Package for the Iokalant Conlang
[Example Image](example.png)
#includes:
	*A m17n engine .mim file for a custom keyboard layout, compatible with ibus-m17n (io-iokalant.mim)
	*A fontforge .sfd font file and a generate TrueType font for rendering of Iokalant Characters encoded in unicode.(IOKALANT_STANT_FATENC.ttf)
	*Documentaion on the encoding used and description of the writing system itself
#Issues:
	*Incompatible with any Tangut fonts installe.
	*The TrueType font does not work with urxvt, but works on Suckless Terminal, Cool Retro Term and any other graphical application
	*Currently the Font is marked as being in the private use characters block when it is in the Tangut characters block because fontforge lacks such a preset
#Dependencies:
	*TrueType font support
	*ibus
	*ibus-m17n
	*unicode as the system locale
#Instructions:
	'$sudo make install'
	'$ibus reset'
	'$ibus-setup'
	Add iokalant as an input method (under Ido)
	
	'$st -f "xos4 Terminus,IOKALANT_STANT_FATENC:size=12" # to launch a compatible Terminal'
