daring fireball in 2019 <https://daringfireball.net/linked/2019/12/20/the-cocoa-text-system> suggests it is still in use at that time, even in Catalyst apps, so i think it is current

i had some confusion because the claimed emacs shortcuts don’t work for me in any application. HOWEVER, i just checked and they do work when i switch the input method to ABC. so, the plot thickens, and maybe the current implementation is input‐method‐dependent???

can anyone explain to me :⁠—

1) is the Cocoa Text System described here <https://web.archive.org/web/20210219223351/http://www.hcs.harvard.edu/~jrus/site/cocoa-text.html> used anywhere in modern macOS?

2) if not, when was it removed?

it¦s weird how frequent potentially world⹀ending events are in recent years in the pokémon games considering you never hear of anything like it happening in the recent past, but on the other hand look outside

Şş is a cute but traditional option for Sh if you really care about having the curved descender

(if you’d rather steal from cyrillic there’s Ɥɥ for Ch but Ꜭꜭ resembles others in the series a lot better)

(yep! either way it looks like a 4)

Ʒʒ for Zh is well‐established; Ꜭꜭ for Ch is cute because it can be interpreted as “J with flag”

Sh is the difficult one here; i’m also fond of £ſ as an option

not too fond of Ʃʃ though; the capital is decidedly non‐latinate

proposal to replace

Sh sh / Zh zh / Ch ch

with

Ƨƨ / Ʒʒ / Ꜭꜭ

kind of girl who moves over to lie in her girlfriend’s spot of warmth after the latter gets up even though she has a perfectly good spot of warmth under herself already

i keep wanting there to be simple apps which don’t exist and i probably could make

but on the other hand i extremely do not want to learn how to do that

here it is being put to use: https://git.ladys.computer/WWW/commitdiff/715911964479ffb20cfa205765db47453266cf44

finally extracted this out into its own repo

remember when i was a meowth named kitty mogs that was a good bit

.SECONDEXPANSION is generally extremely good and useful but good luck escaping anything ever

me, sowing:
.SECONDEXPANSION: ;

me, reaping:
make: metadata/file: No such file or directory
make: *** [build/catalogs/file.catalog] Error 1

i’m the kind of girl who fixes and repushes git tags

hey presto
