Re: A conlang howto

I liked the way Greek and Latin were used in tandem. I had something like that
for a latinization of Tech, since I needed additional letters for interdental,
lateral and uvular fricatives.

The letters I used, and still would use for any future conlang including Exian:
delta for /D/, gamma for /R/, theta for /T/, lambda for /K/.

I also have an alphabet called Conservative, for use in a West Greek condialect
or maybe a "revived" Etruscan, Gaulish or Gothic. It used Latin with Greek
additions and used conventions used by pre-Etruscan, pre-Latin alphabets. (For
example, the Greek letter Psi represents /kh/ instead of /ps/, and X stands for
/ks/ and not /kh/.)

Another advantage of Conservative is back in the mid- to late-1990s, I could use
ASCII for everything, but switch back-and-forth from the Times New Roman font to
the Symbol font. Of course that was no longer necessary when I upgraded my dad's
old computer to Windows 95 and got Greek language support, but on webpages I
still used the Times/Symbol system.

It doesn't quite look right however; Symbol characters at 12 point are slightly
larger than Times letters at 12 point; they were more like 13.5-point Times.
