It's also interesting to see how Microsoft Word handles this. The screen snap below shows the the dialog box for attaching bopomofo annotations to the ideographic characters to the left. Note that we have changed the default annotation (ㄌㄧㄠˇ) given for the second character to ㄌㄜ˙, typing the light tone at the end.

Syllable-final consonants
Observation: Swampy Cree and Northern Ojibway use a similar but different character for the final y, ᣞ [U+18DE CANADIAN SYLLABICS FINAL SMALL RING].p,2
-Observation: Wikipedia uses ᐝ [U+141D CANADIAN SYLLABICS Y-CREE W] , for the final-j circle, eg. ᓰᐱᐝ, , presumably because the content was written before the UCAS Extended block was supported by fonts. For the combination with a symbol with a w-dot, Wikipedia gives the example ᓅᐦᑖᐃ᛬ nᵒ̱htᵃ̱wⁱᐩ|nᵒ̱htᵃ̱i᛬ (nōhtāwiy) my father which ends with ᛬ [U+16EC RUNIC MULTIPLE PUNCTUATION] (!). On the other hand, there are separate code points in the Unicode block for similar combinations, such as ᔴ [U+1534 CANADIAN SYLLABICS WEST-CREE YWII] which may the the same thing, but i can't find any information about them.

ᕽ [U+157D CANADIAN SYLLABICS HK] is used to represent the common aspirated final ʰk, eg. ᐑᒋᐦᐃᕽ Other syllable-final clusters are generally written using multiple characters, eg. ᒥᑖᑕᐦᐟ.

Like Thai, Lao uses a visual encoding model, so these characters are not combining characters, and are typed and stored before the base.

Contents
Bamakanan text often contains French words or spellings, but the characters needed for French words are not covered here. Nor is the N'Ko alphabet covered here (see N'Ko).
Phonological transcriptions on this page should be treated as an approximate guide. No clear distinction is made between phonemic and phonetic information, and transcriptions may vary depending on the source of the transcription. Accents are used for tone marks to show the basic information only. Bamanan tones involve complicated contextual rules. These are not transcribed in detail. Also tone marks are not used for syllables that follow an initial indication, and the high tone is usually not marked unless it needs to be for clarity.
-In addition, Bamanan has numerous dialects and variant pronunciations, each of which may lead to differences in pronunciation or spelling. The pronunciation in this document is generally based on the the standard Bamanan dialect of Bamako.

You can see how each script wraps by going to the word wrap test page and changing the width of the browser window. It is impressive to see how, if all scripts are displayed together, each line wraps according to its own rules.
English, Greek, Hindi, and Russian text wraps whole words onto the next line.
Arabic and Hebrew do the same, but the text wraps to the right. Wrapping of embedded Latin text produces a special effect that will be
