[request] Esperanto Keyboard Support
asked 2015-05-09 11:20:57 +0300
It would be great to get support for an Esperanto keyboard please. This keyboard would not need to be hugely different to the current English one just with support for the following 6 characters: Ĉ,Ĝ,Ĥ,Ĵ,Ŝ and Ŭ.
In addition you could also lose the Q,W,X and Y characters but the support for the above accented characters is really the critical part.
If someone could direct me where to get started submitting a pull request to the project then I'd be happy to do it myself.
Many thanks.
I wasn’t sure if someone may use this. The layout needs to be updated for SailfishOS 1.1.4.x. We also can ask the developer @tmi to package them. :)
@Markkyboy, keyboard layouts need no development. They are just layouts. All developments have been done by Jolla at the first place.
AliN ( 2015-05-09 14:11:03 +0300 )edit@AliNa - perhaps 'developed' was the wrong choice of word. I suppose I really meant, how functional the keyboard is to someone who natively speaks/writes in Esperanto (Until this morning, I have not heard of Esperanto).
I'm having a go at packaging a keyboard as RPM, seeing as I have managed to package RPM's for ambience, on the device (I don't know how to use the Sailfish SDK). This is new territory for me, I have all kinds of errors to contend with for now, but there is plenty of help to be had at talk.meamo.org for this kind of subject.
