UNIJOHAB2HTML(1)

💖 UNIJOHAB2HTML 💖

okay bestie, so unijohab2html is a little icon in the General Commands Manual (that's section 1, iykyk) and it's about to show you combined Hangul syllable jamo juxtaposition as a whole entire web page. yes. a web page. we're serving looks in HTML. 🎀

✨ NAME ✨

unijohab2html — Show combined Hangul syllable jamo juxtaposition as a web page

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

unijohab2html -i hangul-base.hex -o hangul-syllables.hex

that's it. that's the whole vibe. 💅

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so here's the tea, bestie. unijohab2html reads glyphs out of a Unifont .hex file that's organized in Johab 6/3/1 format — that's 6 choseong variations, 3 jungseong variations, and 1 jongseung variation. the whole 6/3/1 moment. 🫶

then it produces an HTML output file showing all the Hangul letters in a color-coded output, laid out in 16-by-16 cell grids. and the color coding? absolutely iconic:

• blue cells = where choseong glyphs appear
• green = jungseong
• red = jongseong

any overlaps get shown with a combination of the colors. for example, where one or more choseong (blue) letters overlap jungseong (green), that cell will be blue + green = cyan. likewise, jungseong (green) and jongseong (red) overlaps show up as green + red = yellow, etc. there's literally a color key at the beginning of the HTML table so you're not out here guessing. 😭

now — if any overlaps of choseong and jungseong exist, those get output in the HTML file too, identifying the overlapping letters in a combined Unifont .txt file format. and why do we care? because from these overlaps, a Hangul font creator can decide whether the overlap is acceptable or whether it should be modified. it's giving peer review but make it glyphs. 💖

if an overlap is with an ancient vowel or diphthong — that's U+1176, HANGUL JUNGSEONG A-O through U+11A7, HANGUL JUNGSEONG O-YAE — it gets marked as an "Ancient Vowel" in this ending list of overlaps. if a choseong is ancient — that's U+11C3, HANGUL JONGSEONG KIYEOK-RIEUL, through U+11FF, HANGUL JONGSEONG SSANGNIEUN — it's marked as "Ancient Choseong" in the output. and overlapping choseong and jungseong in the Hangul Jamo Extended-A and Extended-B ranges are listed as "Extended Ancient". 🏛️

the way this identification of ancient and extended ancient versus modern Hangul works out? it lets a font designer optimize modern Hangul when weighing design tradeoffs. main character energy for modern Hangul, honestly. 👑

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

here's how you actually run it:

unijohab2html -i hangul-base.hex -o hangul-overlaps.html

or, if you're feeling pipe-y and mysterious:

unijohab2html < hangul-base.hex > hangul-overlaps.html

both slay. pick your fighter. ⭐
