Thanks, I looked at that file when I added a few scripts to HELLO.

The goals of that file are different from what we try doing in HELLO.
Our goal is to show the different scripts, not different languages or
fonts.  For that reason, many languages are absent from HELLO if they
use the same scripts which are already present in the file (for other
languages).  IOW, the different languages in HELLO are just the means
to a certain end: we need a language using a script to say "hello" for
that script.
