Paleohispanic keyboard

Paleohispanic is a non-unicode ancient script.
There are 28 basic glyphs.

ᚹ α›– Ξ” ᛁ ᛇ πŒ‡ β΄΅ Ξ› α›š ΣΎ
α›Š X < ш α›Ÿ N α›  Y κž‰ ⁝

This is an interesting possibility. If you wish to develop a keyboard, you are more than welcome to do so. I understand this could help progress the proposal if you can prove an implementation is sufficient for the script.

If you want it distributed from the Keyman repository we would ask you to submit it under the experimental section. That is where any non-standard keyboards should go. Since this isn’t in Unicode it would need to use a PUA encoding or it would be permissible to use the roadmapped positions, with a large disclaimer that the script is not in Unicode and the codepoints are not stable and are likely to change in the future. We would not welcome a hacked encoding.

Paleohispanic is in the supplementary multilingual plane roadmap.
The last proposal for unicode (https://www.unicode.org/L2/L2022/22146-north-paleohispanic.pdf ) has 58 glyphs, I put them all on the keys with the proposed unicode points. Is it necessary to make a new font (Viccionari:Escriptura ibèrica - Viccionari, el diccionari lliure)?
