On the other hand, I have to wonder > if the CCL interpreter could be faster. I think there's not much room of improvement in the CCL interpreter (i.e. the function ccl_driver). In addtion, in emacs-unicode, CCL is, by default, used only for Ethiopic font encoding, and it can easily be changed not to use CCL. So, I think it's not that worth working on CCL interpreter. --- Ken'ichi HANDA handa@m17n.org
