Yet another way to type amharic on standard english keyboard. #EN2AM Why I created it? I didn't like the way current converters work. They slow down my typing speed because each group of characters are converted on the fly as I am typing another, causing me to stop for a while until I am able to figure out where the caret has been repositoned. I thought the best approach to not loosing speed would be to convert it using batch mode on every line or in the event of a key hit. #Requirement C++11 compiler and CMake #Building Currently only the cli is buildable. To build the cli > en2am> mkdir build && cd build > en2am/build> cmake .. > en2am/build> make #Runnig Currently the tool can only be used from the command line example >en2am/build> ./en2am > Usage > en2am [input_file_path] [output_file_path] > en2am >en2am/core> ./en2am "yh ya^ityophyaa hzb dmts naw" >ይህ የኢትዮጵያ ህዝብ ድምፅ ነው **Note:** You may use programs like xclip for transferrign CLI text to teh OS's clipboard. eg. on linux: > en2am "yh ya^ityophyaa hzb dmts naw" | xclip -selection clip All mappings are found in core/en2am.h ##Todo - [ ] GUI client - [ ] Mobile client - [ ] Make user configurable mapping - [ ] Package program for V1 beta release ##References [omniglot.com]
