Add Deseret support

Opened this issue ยท 1 comments

I would also like Deseret support which was designed by the Mormons after they moved to Utah. As part of my research on Shavian, I also discovered Deseret as they are both phonemic alphabets with "1 letter per sound".

Both Shavian and Deseret are defined in Unicode. Here's the poem again called Four Ducks in a Pond:

Four ducks on a pond,
A grass-bank beyond,
A blue sky of spring,
White clouds on the wing;
What a little thing
To remember for years-
To remember with tears!

Thank you so much for the suggestion! I've added it to #1, where I'm keeping track of extensions of Darwin to other writing systems, including both extension I'm personally interested in adding eventually, as well as requested additions.
