Is it possible to include https://github.com/String-Latin/DIN-91379-Characters-and-Sequences dynamically?

Or just add a link.

I actually wanted to do that but it wasn't that easily possible.

Problem: Even in the most detailed csv (https://github.com/String-Latin/DIN-91379-Characters-and-Sequences/blob/main/latin_list_search_form_1.3.txt) there is less structured information than what we have in https://github.com/it-at-m/UnicodeEingabeKiwi2/blob/main/public/model/stringlatin-v2.xml.

E.g. the information about the "base char" (which we use for searching the corresponding variants), if it's a capital letter and we currently have some special characters which are not officially in the norm but useful nontheless.

It might be possible to make a contribution to their repo and then include a small csv to xml-parser in our build-process.
