Description László Németh 2020-08-09 09:05:50 UTC
Old Hungarian or Székely script (ISO 15924: Hung) is a historical and renewed script which is still in use to transliterate Hungarian writing, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Old_Hungarian_script.

The writing uses a right-to-left numbering using characters from the Old Hungarian Unicode code page.

Automatic numbering is requested by publishing. For example, in the following project: https://demokrata.hu/magyarorszag/az-ige-rovasbetukkel-176140/ (in Hungarian)
