Custom Number Map

Substitute 0-9 with new mapping for MCL/AFL below transition level.

Configured by CustomNumber0-9. Must be 10 ASCII characters to make it work.

[!TIP] Use with custom font, e.g., number underscores.

Personally, I recommend Ááäéíóö÷úü as substitute. Changes to font can be made with FontForge.
