Hi,
You're right, it is not documented, probably because it was never intended
to be used like that.
If possible you should try to avoid defining a character twice with
different dot patterns, but it's OK if there is no other choice (there are
some valid use cases, as long as it is done in a controlled way).
I'm not too sure what the order of processing is. I believe the first
definition wins, but don't take my word for it. You can easily test this
yourself though.
This issue is also relevant: https://github.com/liblouis/liblouis/issues/384.
It shows that there is probably an inconsistency when capsletter is in use.
So be careful, back your table with enough tests.

The LibLouis documentation is slightly unclear on this one.
If in a table there are two character definition opcodes for one
character, which one will be applied?
The reason I want to do this is that in the table I am working on we
probably can reuse another table in the main, but a few characters may need
redefining. Would I need to define these differences first before including
the existing table or do I do the include first.
