dfaae4be93 ACIP->TMW and ACIP->Unicode now allow for Unicode escapes like K\u0F84. This means that the lack of support for ACIP's backslash, '\\', is mitigated because you can turn ACIP {K\} into ACIP {K\u0F84}.
Support for U+F021-U+F0FF, the PUA that the latest EWTS uses, is not provided.

4e6a9c299f ACIP % {MTHAR%} and o {Ko} and ^ {^GONG SA} are now supported. A % always causes a warning. 2003-11-11 03:43:11 +00:00

2cb90bd231 ACIP->Tibetan converters now warn every time {%} is encountered that U+0F14 might've been intended.
The Unicode for ACIP {o} is U+0F37.

04816acb74 ACIP->Unicode was broken for KshR, ndRY, ndY, YY, and RY -- those
stacks that use full-form subjoined RA and YA consonants.

ACIP {RVA} was converting to the wrong things.

The TMW for {RVA} was converting to the wrong ACIP.

Checked all the 'DLC' tags in the ttt (ACIP->Tibetan) package.

4b1395e0ba Jskad has a new feature: Convert Selection from ACIP to Tibetan. It uses the ACIP converter to do its work.
Improved some error messages from the ACIP->Tibetan converter.

ee50291ed4 Andres found that "THAG PA" caused a NullPointerException. That's fixed.
Renamed ACIPString to TString -- we'll use this for EWTS and ACIP both.

TMW->ACIP for TMW9.61 should work now.

115d0e0e6c Fixed ACIP->TMW vowels like 'I etc.
Fixed ACIP->Unicode/TMW for BDE, which should be B-DE, not B+DE, because the former is legal Tibetan.

The ACIP->EWTS subroutine has improved.

TMW->Wylie and TMW->ACIP are improved in error cases.

TMW->ACIP has friendly embedded error messages now.

07e360d9a8 The ACIP {NYA%} is supported. {NYAo} and {NYAx} are confusing to me,
because I don't know which glyphs o and x correspond to.  For that
reason, they cause ERRORs.

The proposed THDL Extended Wylie ~X and X is now used for U+0F35 and
U+0F37 respectively.

717c3b94f3 Fixed ACIP->Unicode spaces/tshegs and newlines, especially with shads.
"NGA," becomes "NGA-tsheg-," automatically now.

cc615f34df ACIP->TMW and ACIP->Unicode have my pre-stamp of non-approval. Except
for (NYAx} and {NYAo}, they're as good as I'll get them without input
from experts of the employ of a complementary, syllabary-based
approach.

d2749cecd0 ACIP->TMW and ACIP->Unicode are now smart about when a newline is
really a newline and when a space is really a tsheg. The space in {KA
,MDO} is a tsheg, but the space in {GA ,MDO} is not.

1982c5847b Jskad's converter now has ACIP-to-Unicode built in. There are known
bugs; it is pre-alpha.  It's usable, though, and finds tons of errors
in ACIP input files, with the user deciding just how pedantic to be.
The biggest outstanding bug is the silent one: treating { }, space, as
tsheg instead of whitespace when we ought to know better.

d5ad760230 TMW->Wylie conversion now takes advantage of prefix rules, the rules
that say "ya can take a ga prefix" etc.

The ACIP->Unicode converter now gives warnings (optionally, and by
default, inline).  This converter now produces output even when
lexical errors occur, but the output has errors and warnings inline.

1afb3a0fdd ACIP->Unicode, without going through TMW, is now possible, so long as
\, the Sanskrit virama, is not used.  Of the 1370-odd ACIP texts I've
got here, about 57% make it through the gauntlet (fewer if you demand
a vowel or disambiguator on every stack of a non-Tibetan tsheg bar).

245aac4911 I'm now stricter about accepting alphabetic characters. F, Q, X, a,
b, c, d, e, ... do not belong in ACIP, so the scanner rejects them.
This should make it even easier to distinguish automatically between
Tibetan and English texts.

39451d8879 Fixed a couple of small bugs.
Only 250 errors are reported now; this is important if you try to
convert an English document.

4581a2d8ab Improved the ACIP scanner (the part of the converter that says, "This
is a correction, that's a comment, this is Tibetan, that's Latin
(English), that's Tibetan inter-tsheg-bar punctuation, etc.)  It now
accepts more real-world ACIP files, i.e. it handles illegal
constructs.  The error checking is more user-friendly.  There are now
tests.

Added some tsheg bars that Peter E. Hauer of Linguasoft sent me to the
tests.  Many thanks, Peter.  I still need to implement rules that say,
"This is not Tibetan, it must be Sanskrit, because that letter doesn't
take a MA prefix."

0b91ed0beb I've improved the ACIP tsheg bar scanner to handle a lot of illegal
constructions that occur in practice.

2b59d9838d I now have a function that takes as input a String of ACIP and breaks
up that String into tsheg bars, punctuation, etc., while finding
errors.  I've tested it some, but I'm not yet committing the tests.

Next step: a converter that takes an ACIP file as input and outputs
TMW+Latin.
