3 * Relations between Characters
4
5 Feature-name `->foo' or `<-foo' mean relations between characters.
6
7 If there are a relationship `foo', feature-name `->foo' means a value
8 of the feature is a `foo' of the defined character.  Likewise,
9 feature-name `<-foo' means the defined character is a `foo' of each
10 value of the feature.
11
12 Example 1: If a character ?A has feature `(->lowercase . (?a))', the
13 character ?a specified in the feature is a lowercase of the defined
14 character ?A.
15
16 Example 2: If a character ?a has feature `(<-lowercase . (?A))', the

18 the feature.

22
23 Type of feature `->foo' or `<-foo' are list of ``char-ref''.  The
24 type char-ref is defined by following definition:
25
26    char-ref = character | char-spec | char-spec
27
28 The type ``char-spec'' is a list of features.  In the list of
29 features, some keys are defined in the specification.  Following list
30 describes meaning of keys:
31
32   :char
33         Required.  It indicates a character.
34         [type] character | char-spec
35
36   :sources
37         Optional.  It indicates a source of the relation.
38         [type] list of symbols
