My Version is 11.5 and please help!
For example,
a b -> c b;
a b c -> d b c.

Moved to support
It is hard to understand why you need this. Please explain.
Perhaps the
Randomize Feature will be of interest to you?

You need a chained context substitution and single substitution lookups as shown here:

A basic script that you can import looks like:
Code: Select all
script latn {
feature ContextualAlternates1;
}
feature ContextualAlternates1 calt {
lookup ChainingContext1;
}
lookup ChainingContext1 {
context a (b c);
sub 0 SingleSubstitution1;
context a (b);
sub 0 SingleSubstitution2;
}
lookup SingleSubstitution1 {
sub a -> d;
}
lookup SingleSubstitution2 {
sub a -> c;
}

And what should I do if I want to do like this:
a <any characters> b c -> a <any characters> d c
