[XeTeX] XeLaTex and Armenian

[David Perry]

Code2000 is a font (shareware, by James Kass) that includes just about 
every character in the BMP.  It's useful if you're not sure that any 
other font on your system has the characters you need.  He also has a 
Code2001 for characters in the first supplementary plane and (I 
think--never used it) another for the characters in the second 
supplementary plane.
