#32I wonder why Luxembourgish is supported when German is not...
Maybe Luxembourgish doesn't have an uppercase ẞ? Dutch is also not supported. Presumbly no support for the 'ij' digraph. But do you even need that in a monospace font? Admittedly old Dutch typewriters used to have a single character for it, but that's really old-timey.
I didn't want to even try to mess with ligatures in a monospace font though I did œ and Œ and for WGL4 completeness IJ. So yeah I'll do ij as well...

#33I'm trying the code version out, and the only minor tweak I could mention is that having the option for a dotted zero would be clutch. The other typewriter font that has one is narrower, and this one reads better otherwise, at least to me.

#34This is pretty nice: thanks for including polytonic Greek and macrons over Latin vowels including over y. I especially love how the breathing marks and accents look together over initial vowels in Greek, and I love zeta (ζ) and xi (ξ) in this font. Might I make a few specific suggestions: - allow combining breve over Latin y as well: sometimes that's handy for indicating contrast - check the height of stacking diacri…
Ok so there's no capital or small Y with breve in Unicode. Are you seeing the combining breve to the right of the Y/y (instead of atop it) when trying to use them? Your suggestions are welcome, thank you!
I'll note the diacritics test page at
https://alanwood.net/unicode/combining_diacritical_marks.htm... -- is there a better one?
