Wish for the next AOO

["atagak xplornet.ca" <at...@xplornet.ca>]

Hey everybody,



Just wondering if it is possible (If it isn't too late?) to include a
transliterator in the next Writer for AOO?



An earlier suggestion to use auto correct didn't work as planned, it would
make a big difference in the way translators do their word processing.



I have created in Visual Basic a notepad that converts roman orthography
into Inuktitut syllabics, and was able to provide the same syllabics to a
Firefox developer who already has an add-on that does the same thing in any
field that firefox can view, and for Thunderbird email, developed in Java I
think?



No other word processor that I know of does this, Microsoft has one, but,
it isn't an orthography to syllabic converter, you have to hold down a key
and map your keyboard with stickers that show you where your syllabics are.



I'm not pro in developing codes, not fluent in other programming languages,
if this is possible, I can provide the syllabic charts and their roman
orthography, and what we type to get that one syllabic letter?



I thank all in advance.

Andrew Tagak Jr.

Hey Juergen,

I just created a wiki! I'll see what I can do in the next while, and
hopefully get some developers interested in my wish :)

Thanks again.

Take care

Andrew

Thank you Juergen,

There is no hurry for this, and I will get all the info that I can collect
and hope some time in the future a developer will notice it :)

When the wiki page is created, do I submit the address to the distribution
email list?

Thanks in advance.

Andrew

Hi Andrew,

I still like your idea but it means also some work and I assume that
it will be difficult to include it in AOO 4.0. But that doesn't mean
that we don't want support it, you should continue to promote the
feature and hopefully some interested developers start working on it.

Maybe a good idea and a good start is to collect all the information and
create a wiki page to explain and document the feature in detail.

Juergen
