//Notes:
//RECOMMENDED FONTS
//Because of the wide range of characters used in the OED, you'll need some special fonts.
//I recommend installing both of the following (and the CSS used by this script reflects that):
//Charis SIL: http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&item_id=CharisSILfont
//Aisa Unicode: http://www.oeaw.ac.at/kal/multikey/ (the EXE is a ZIP archive, extract it)
//TODO
//does the document's encoding matter or does JS take care of that for you? seems to work as-is
//letters in small-caps author names have lowercase {} names but should look uppercase
//LIMITATIONS
//IPA small capital Y (U+028F) is shown using a small-caps Y, not an image, so it's not converted
//some entries, like 'integral' and 'integer', have custom (unconvertible) math images
//Arabic and Hebrew are in visual order in the OED so I'm using LRO as a kludge,
// and the results won't be usable for searching Google etc.
//AMBIGUOUS/ERRONEOUS CHARACTERS
//{Cbreve} is used in 'robot' erroneously for {Chacek}
//{ghacek} is used in 'pasha' erroneously for {gbreve}
//{glots} in 'Tohono O'odham' looks like U+02C0 MODIFIER LETTER GLOTTAL STOP
// but the language may actually use U+02BC MODIFIER LETTER APOSTROPHE
//{hatpath} and {hatqam} in 'sheva' are plainly meant to represent
// U+05B2 HEBREW POINT HATAF PATAH and U+05B3 HEBREW POINT HATAF QAMATS
// so I've converted them as such, but the images differ slightly
// {hatseg} in the same entry appears correct
//{mu} represents both U+03BC GREEK SMALL LETTER MU and U+00B5 MICRO SIGN
//{phi} represents both U+03C6 GREEK SMALL LETTER PHI and U+03D5 GREEK PHI SYMBOL
// the latter's glyph form is used in the image but the former is what I'm using for now
// new entries are using {phi2} (with the phi-symbol glyph) for Greek words....
//{shtsyll} is used in 'hyphen' for an ancient Greek hyphen, not in Unicode?
//{swing} may represent both U+2053 SWUNG DASH and U+223C TILDE OPERATOR
//{taur} is used in 'W' for something like U+0223 LATIN SMALL LETTER OU
//{tri} is used in 'H' erroneously for {Delta}
//NOT IN UNICODE

// in e.g. 'god'
//{blb} - early glyph variant of U+266E MUSIC NATURAL SIGN

//{blU} - blackletter glyph variant of U+0055 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER U
// in 'U'
//{bly} - blackletter glyph variant of U+0079 LATIN SMALL LETTER Y

//{cdot} - Roman numeral capital c with dot, derived from Etruscan theta
// in 'M'
// looks the same as U+03FE GREEK CAPITAL DOTTED LUNATE SIGMA SYMBOL but semantically different
//{cursived} - Old English glyph variant of U+0064 LATIN SMALL LETTER D
// in 'th'
// proposed for Unicode as LATIN SMALL LETTER INSULAR D

// in 'P'
//{egrho1}, {egrho2} - early glyph variants of U+03A1 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER RHO
// in 'R'
//{egsampi} - archaic Ionic Greek tsade-derived letter
// in 'sampi'
// approved for a future version of Unicode as U+0372 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER ARCHAIC SAMPI (subject to change)
//{egsigma1}, {egsigma2} - early glyph variants of U+03A3 GREEK CAPITAL LETTER SIGMA
// in 'S'
//{egxi1}, {egxi2}, {egxi3} - early glyph variants of U+039E GREEK CAPITAL LETTER XI
// in 'X'
//{elatc1}, {elatc2} - early glyph variants of U+0043 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER C
// in 'C'
//{elatg1}, {elatg2} - early glyph variants of U+0047 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER G
// in 'G'
//{elatS} - early glyph variant of U+0053 LATIN CAPITAL LETTER S

// in 'U'
//{ol} - early glyph variant of the Roman numeral L (U+004C LATIN CAPITAL LETTER L)

// in 'M'
//{ormg} - phonetic 'g' used by Ormin
// in 'G'
// seems to be an inverted U+0266 LATIN SMALL LETTER H WITH HOOK but the GIF is too small to tell
// Wikipedia makes it sound like it's just U+0067 LATIN SMALL LETTER G
//{plantinJ} - fancy italic glyph variant of U+004A LATIN CAPITAL LETTER J
// in 'J'
// looks different from U+1D43D MATHEMATICAL ITALIC CAPITAL J

// in 'Z'
//{thbar} - U+00FE LATIN SMALL LETTER THORN with a diagonal stroke
// in 'th"
