Surprising there isn't a better way to do it than defining 10000 ligature config lines and 10000 glyphs. I guess dynamic combinations of subglyphs are a Unicode level thing?

There is a compositional approach, used by this font.

OP went with brute force because it's probably a heck of a lot easier up front, lol.

Nice thanks. I guess this requires manual entry of glyphs, while the other one just works with arabic numerals.
