The file will be included in any case, but I have some question. If
you take a look into the source of pattern generating script (or even
if you don't):

Vowels are divided into two groups. Some patterns only appear for one
group and some only for the other.

2a1
2e1
2ı1
2o1
2u1

.i2
.ö2
.ü2

Should they really be consideder different (I'm esp. interested in
knowing why i and ı are so much different, but there probably is a
good reason for that) or was this partially a leftover from the Otoman
rules?

Same question for consonants. One has

1b1
1c1
1d1
1f1
1g1
1h1
1j1
1k1
1l1
1m1
1n1
1p1
1r1
1s1
1t1
1v1
1y1
1z1

but I'm not sure why the other three letters are missing. I suspect
that this might be a leftover from the old encoding.

Thanks a lot,
   Mojca
