``unfold turns a character, say ë into the set of characters that can be folded to the same base character. so ; unfold ë [eèéêëēĕėęěȅȇȩḕḗḙḛḝẹẻẽếềểễệ]'' To me, that sounds like [e-f] should be [eèéêëēĕėęěȅȇȩḕḗḙḛḝẹẻẽếềểễệfƒ] iff e unfolds to the same set as ë. If e only unfolds to [e], then [e-f] would unfold to [ef]. Does that sound sane?
