I'm too inexperienced to know what that means, or how to apply that.
I've opened the font in FontForge, and can see the glyphs I'm
looking for, but again, it does not carry much applicable meaning
for me. For example, can I use this information?:
Slash 0, Lining Figures: (0x10120) U+0030 "zero.lf.slashed" DIGIT ZERO
1, Lining Figures: (0x10121) U+0031 "one.lf" DIGIT ONE
...
Slash 0, "Basic": (0x1012b) U+0030 "zero.basic.slashed" DIGIT ZERO
1, "Basic": (0x1012c) U+0031 "one.basic" DIGIT ONE
...
Also, under Font Info -> Lookups, I see something which may help:
...
lookup zeroSlashedZeroinLatinlookup25 {
lookupflag 0;
sub \zero by \zero.slashed ;
sub \zero.oldstyle by \zero.oldstyle.slashed ;
sub \zero.alt1 by \zero.alt1.slashed ;
sub \zero.lf by \zero.lf.slashed ;
sub \zero.basic by \zero.basic.slashed ;
} zeroSlashedZeroinLatinlookup25;
...
The whole feature set:

Thanks for your time,
Aíre.
