<disappointed> Too bad, it's not like my Itakian script. Well, I'm not really
disappointed, since I designed the Itakian script as a kind of "inverse
Devanagari" especially to ensure that this script would be completely
unique! :)) I don't think there is any natural script that uses the same
system, and I don't know any conlanger ever making such a script.
