table exactly and I fear that it makes the ACIP->Tibetan converter code
a lot uglier. The TODO(DLC)[EWTS->Tibetan] comments littered throughout
are part of the ugliness; they point to the ugliness. If each were addressed,
cleanliness could perhaps be achieved.
I've largely forgotten exactly what this change does, but it attempts to
improve EWTS->Tibetan conversion. The lexer is probably really, really
primitive. I concentrate here on converting a single tsheg bar rather than
a whole document.
Eclipse was used during part of my journey here and some imports were
reorganized merely because I could. :)
(Eclipse was needed when the usual ant build failed to run a new test
EWTSTest. And I wanted its debugger.)
Next steps: end-to-end EWTS tests should bring many problems to light. Fix
those. Triage all the TODO comments.
I don't know that I'll ever really trust the implementation. The tests are
valuable, though. A clean implementation of EWTS->Tibetan in Jython
might hold enough interest for me; I'd like to learn Python.
'Fonts' module inside the 'Jskad' module. I.e., you must now have the
tree like so:
Jskad/
source/
dist/
Fonts/
TibetanMachineWeb/
.
.
.
This is because the THDL tools now optionally (and by default) load
the TibetanMachineWeb fonts automatically.
Updated the build system so that the 'web-start-releases' and
'self-contained-dist' targets JAR up optional JARs to create
double-clickable, self-contained joy. Even the TMW fonts are in the
JARs now.
Changed the strings describing two Jskad keyboards so that "keyboard"
is no longer in the description. It's in the label next to the combo
box.
Jskad now saves preferences on exit or when the user selects a menu
item (that is there for debugging mainly) to ~/my_thdl_preferences.txt
on *nix or C:\my_thdl_preferences.txt on Win32. I don't know the
correct Mac location.
There's a new paradigm for telling org.thdl.util.ThdlOptions that a
user preference has been changed. If, for example, a combo box is
manipulated so that the ACIP keyboard is selected, then you must call
a certain method in ThdlOptions.
Added a "Quit" option to Savant's File menu. Factored out the Close
option in doing so.
Exceptions in many action listeners are now handled by
org.thdl.util.ThdlActionListener or org.thdl.util.ThdlAbstractAction.
Many exceptions that we used to just log now optionally cause aborts.
This option is on by default for developers using 'ant savant-run'-style
targets, but it is off for users.
An erroneous CLASSPATH now causes a useful error message in almost
all situations.
Fixed some typos and bad links in Javadoc comments.
Added a simple assertion facility, but the overhead is suffered even in
release builds.
Factored out the code that sets up log files like savant.log and jskad.log.
