I have a freeware program called ListFont that will display all your Windows-installed fonts in a tree, showing which languages are encoded with each and allowing you to view that portion of the encoding.

I've been through most of the Georgian grammar there, that's where I got the comment on my webpage about word-initial clusters of eight consonants.
