+/* The rules here are roughly based on the Arabic rules from the Unicode

+ * with the Syriac rules from the Unicode-4.0 standard. The numbers
+ * R1...R11  below do not correspond to either the Arabic or the Syriac
+ * rule numbering from the Unicode standard.
+ * 
+ * Characters are here specified as appearing in the byte stream, i.e.
+ * *not* in visual order. Joining classes are given in angle brackets,
+ * glyph forms in square brackets.  Glyphs affected by a specific rule are
+ * enclosed with vertical bars.
+ *
+ *
+ * Glyphs: 0x0715 (Dalath), 0x0716 (Dalath Rish), 0x072A (Rish),
+ *         0x0722 (Nun), 0x071F (Kaph)
+ *   
+ *
+ *   R1: <anything1> <transparent> <anything2>
+ *    
+ *       apply joining rules for
+ *       <anything1> <anything2> -> [shape1] [shape2]
+ *       -> [shape1] [isolated] [shape2]
+ *
+ *
+ *   R2: <causing|right> <0x0722|0x071F> <!(causing|right|dual)>
+ *       -> [isolated]
+ *
+ *       The Nun and Kaph characters each have 3 different glyphs
+ *       with two of those glyphs coming at the final position.
+ *       However, one of those final glyphs should really be of the
+ *       isolated glyph form where the preceding character cannot be
+ *       joined to and there is no next character.
+ *
+ *       This rule exists to combine similar exception for both
+ *       characters without increasing the complexity in the other
+ *       rules.
+ *
+ *
+ *   R3: <causing|right|dual> && <!(0x0715|0x0716|0x072A)> |<alaph>|
+ *   
+ *   	 -> [final2]
+ *
+ *   	 If the preceding glyph cannot be joined to the current 
+ *   	 glyph and the preceding character is not a Dalath, Rish, 
+ *   	 or Dotless Dalath Rish, then the Alaph takes this contextual 
+ *   	 position.
+ *
+ *   	 The [final2] joining rule is placed ahead of the [final] to
+ *   	 give it greater precedence when choosing the correct glyph.
+ *   	 If it comes after the [final] rule, the incorrect glyph is
+ *   	 inserted into position.
+ *   	 
+ *   	 
+ *   R4: <0x0715|0x0715|0x072A> |<alaph>|
+ *
+ *   	 -> [final3]
+ *
+ *   	 If the previous glyph is a Dalath, Rish, or Dotless Dalath 
+ *   	 Rish, then the Alaph takes this contextual position.
+ *
+ *   	 The [final3] joining rule is placed ahead of the [final] to
+ *   	 give it greater precedence when choosing the correct glyph.
+ *   	 If it comes after the [final] rule, the incorrect glyph is
+ *   	 inserted into position.
+ *
+ *
+ *   R5: <causing|right|dual> |<right>|
+ *
+ *   	 -> [final]
+ * 
+ * 
+ *   R6: <causing|right|dual> |<dual>| <!(causing|right|dual)>
+ *
+ *   	 -> [final]
+ *   	 
+ * 
+ *   R7: <causing|left|dual> |<dual>| <causing|right|dual>
+ *
+ *   	 -> [medial]
+ *
+ *
+ *   R8: <causing|right> |<alaph>| <causing|right|dual>
+ *
+ *   	 -> [medial2]
+ *
+ *       If the Alaph glyph falls in the middle of a Syriac word and 
+ *       the preceding character cannot be joined to, then the Alaph 
+ *       takes this contextual position.
+ *   	 
+ *
+ *   R9: |<left>| <causing|right|dual>

+ *   	 -> [initial]

+ *
+ *       -> [initial]
+ *
+ *
+ *   R11: <anything> -> [isolated]
+ *
+ *        This joining rule is placed at the end of these features
+ *        because when it is placed at the beginning of all of them
+ *        it tends to break the cursive nature of Syriac writing --
+ *        it inserts the isolated glyph of each character into that
+ *        position with no joining occurring all throughout a text
+ *        document.
