An invented cursive alphabet

This invented cursive alphabet has only four characters, which I will call "i", "r", "l", and "j". The way that they connect to each other is shown below in a four-by-four grid. Note that "rr" and "lr" join in not quite the expected way: there is a cusp instead of a curve before the r. The extra entry at the bottom is "jrj" which has an extra loop to distinguish it from "jj".

Eventually I'll post a Huffman coding of English letter frequencies to map to the English alpabet to this script alphabet.
