Add Schwa (U+018F/U+0259)

[duytrung]

Hello,

I found some of the languages were not displayed properly, seen in this screen shot:

See in "Comment [az]... and Comment [vi], the characters were displayed as "[?]".

I viewed with Notepad++ version 8, Unicode as the default encoding.

Thanks for considering the issue

These characters are probably not supported in Fira Code, and it looks like you don’t have any font on your system that supports the. If you paste them here I can check to know for sure

Thanks for considering the issue

Yep they are both in the font. Schwa (U+018F/U+0259) can be added relatively easily (we already have those in the font, but as U+04D8/U+04D9.

As for Vietnamese, I think it not just the matter of adding the missing symbols. This is just an example, and full support will take much more time.

[RubenVerg]

Does that include long schwa?

[tonsky]

I have no idea what any of those are. If you want something added, post unicode codepoint and reasoning why you need this, and I’ll try my best adding this

[wopian]

I have no idea what any of those are

I think long schwa is possibly referring to this character: ɜ (U+025C)

[RubenVerg]

Yep, I was trying to understand if it was part of this issue

Thanks everyone for considering the issue
