Proposal

Inclusion of JABCode and HiQ color barcode creators, to adapt those repos (C and Java respectively) into Javascript

BWIP-JS is a transliteration (from PostScript to JavaScript) of the BWIPP project maintained by myself.

See here for the current status of JAB Code: bwipp/postscriptbarcode#96

Please raise a new issue there requesting implementation of HiQ and specify whether you would be prepared to sponsor development or whether this is just a nice to have.

@terryburton it is more of a patriotic nice to have (HKCU is my city).
