[XeTeX] charlint?

[Dominik Wujastyk]

Very preliminary tests, using this:

@book{Vāgbhaṭa:1939,
author = {Vāgbhaṭa, and Gode, P. K. (Parshuram Krishna) and Kuṇṭe,
Aṇṇā Moreśvara. and Navare, Kr̥ṣṇaśāstrī. and Parāḍakara,
Hariśāstrī Sadāśiva.},
title= {Aṣṭāṅgahr̥dayam},
edition = {6th ed.},
address = {Mumbayyām : },
publisher = {Pāṇḍuraṅga Jāvajī [at Nirṇayasāgara mudrālaya],},
year = {1939.},
size = {2, 42, 23, 12, 34, 54, 956, 2 p. ; 276 cm.},
langage = {English ; Marathi ; Sanskrit},
note = {In Sanskrit; prefatory matter in English and Marathi},
note = {Added t.p. in English},
note = {With 9 indexes: 1. authors and titles mentioned by Vāgbhaṭa,
2. metres, 3. citations in the Sarvāṅgasundarā, 4. citations in the
Āyurvedarasāyana, 5. citations in the notes, 6. abbreviations used
in the notes, 7. the 33 manuscripts used for preparing the presend
edition, 8. the 55 printed texts used for preparing the present
edition, 9. verses changed or added in this edition},
note = {With plates of Kr̥ṣṇaśāstrī Devadhara, A. M. Kuṇṭe and
H. Parāḍakara},
note = {Introduction in English by P. K. Gode},
note = {Includes bibliographic references},
abstract = {Summary: Verse work, with commentary, on the ayurvedic
system in Indic medicine.},
keywords = {Medicine, Ayurvedic.},
location = {Wellcome Library},
}


show improvement, but the r-undercircle character (as in Kr̥ṣṇaśāstrī)
results in a blank space.
