(Behdad Esfahbod) +- Add “--safe-to-insert-tatweel” to “hb-shape” tool. (Behdad Esfahbod) + +- New API ++HB_GLYPH_FLAG_SAFE_TO_INSERT_TATWEEL ++HB_BUFFER_FLAG_PRODUCE_SAFE_TO_INSERT_TATWEEL + + +Overview of changes leading to 5.0.1 +Saturday, July 23, 2022 +==================================== +- Fix version 2 “avar” table with hb-ft.
