Template talk:Arabic alphabet Naskh and Nastaliq shapes

Nastaliq bit doesn't work well

The Nastaliq template used in this doesn't work well.

The extension character work in some nastaliq fonts, but not windows Urdu Typesetting, one of the most common Nastaliq fonts (see above). This could be solved by using zero width joiner wiktionary: ‍ instead of Tatweel wiktionary: ـ

But another issue is that Nastaliq letters have more than three forms.

Naskh letter forms				Nastaliq letter forms
isolated glyph	with tatweel			isolated glyph	end after	mid between		start before
	end	mid	start		ٮ	ٮ ا	ٮ ی	ا	ی
wiktionary: ئ	ـئ	ـئـ	ئـ	ئ	ٮئ	ٮئا	ٮئی	ئا	ئی
wiktionary:پ	ـپ	ـپـ	پـ	پ	ٮپ	ٮپا	ٮپی	پا	پی
wiktionary:ن	ـن	ـنـ	نـ	ن	ٮن	ٮنا	ٮنی	نا	نی
wiktionary:ق	ـق	ـقـ	قـ	ق	ٮق	ٮقا	ٮقی	قا	قی
wiktionary:ک	ـک	ـکـ	کـ	ک	ٮک	ٮکا	ٮکی	کا	کی
wiktionary:گ	ـگ	ـگـ	گـ	گ	ٮگ	ٮگا	ٮگی	گا	گی
