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.
which means that the command-line tool can finally function with a headless
graphics device. Hopefully it will speed things up, too. It also means that
entering Roman text into the TMW->Unicode conversion and TMW->TM
conversion will be easy.
faster than TMW->Unicode etc.; this is because many fewer replacements
are made (i.e., more text is replaced each time a replacement is
performed).
I must find a way to still preserve formatting but do many fewer
replacements in TMW->{Unicode,TM} and TM->TMW.
Noted some failures. "Fixed" the code to do what I want it to do for
the (no sanskrit stacking, tibetan stacking) case [which is exercised
by this keyboard only].
clean check'. Right now there are tests to ensure that typing certain
sequences of keys in the Extended Wylie keyboard gives the expected
Extended Wylie back when "Tools/Convert Tibetan to Wylie" is invoked.
The syntactically illegal d.wa now converts to Tibetan and then back
to d.wa (not dwa, as it did); likewise with the illegal g.wa. wa
doesn't take any prefixes, but I prefer clean end-to-end
behavior. (jeskd doesn't go end-to-end, though.)
Note that you cannot successfully run the DuffPane tests on a Linux
box unless your DISPLAY variable is set correctly. Thus, my nightly
builds will fail with an Error (as opposed to a Failure).
of various known Java bugs. Those who mess around with
backspace take note of the following:
The Java bug database has several related bugs concerning the treatment
of backspace. Here I adopt solution based on fix of bug 4402080:
Evaluation The text components now key off of KEY_TYPED with a keyChar == 8 to do the
deletion. The motivation for this can be found in bug 4256901.

'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.
but does line breaks correctly. I.e., I refactored DuffPane into two classes.
I did this trying to track down a subtle bug in line breaking: 'gye ' breaks
after 'gy' sometimes, with the dreng bo on the next line, but only when you
resize the window certain ways, and only in Savant (and maybe QD and the
translation tool, I don't know) but not in Jskad.
I was not successful in finding the bug, but it still exists when I use
TibetanPanes instead of DuffPanes in org.thdl.savant.tib.*.
ACIP or 'ShSm' in Extended Wylie to see the new behavior.
We use a trie to store valid input sequences. In the future, we could use
the same trie as a replacement for the more inefficient HashSets we use to
store characters, vowels, and punctuation. For example, we'd use
'validInputSequences.put("K", new Pair("consonant", "k"))' when reading
in the ACIP keyboard's description of the first consonant of the Tibetan
alphabet in 'TibetanKeyboard.java'.
Note that the current trie implementation is only useful for 7- or 8-bit
transcription systems, and works best for tries with low average depth, which
describes a transcription system's trie very well. If you used arbitrary
Unicode in your keyboard, you'd need a different trie implementation.
Improved the optional keyboard input mode status messages.
Added a JUnit test for the new Trie that fails at present since the Trie is
case-insensitive. Running JUnit tests is not something our build system
knows about at present, but Eclipse 2.0 makes it very easy.
Fixed a few compiler errors due to imports I'd forgotten.
DefaultStyledDocument, and another consisting entirely of static utility
methods for processing Tibetan text. Moved TibetanDocument.DuffData
into its own class.
I think this makes things a bit more transparent, and gets us a little closer to
making clean use of Swing.
is basically that we use our own special ViewFactory, with a new
subclass of LabelView (the view RTFEditorKit uses for the nitty
gritty) that is aware of Tibetan.
There are a couple of nasty hacks still here, and Swing's
documentation for doing what I did was quite poor. I searched the web
for hours, read the Javadocs and the tutorials, and consulted a Swing
reference book, but I still don't have tremendous confidence in this
solution. If it fundamentally doesn't work, though, we have to define
our own first-class Document, Element hierarchy, ViewFactory, Views,
and EditorKit. So let's hope it *does* work fundamentally.
I can't say for sure if this even works, as I have yet to run this
code on a machine where Jskad works properly. I had major trouble
installing the TMW fonts on Linux, and have yet to resolve it, even
after verifying via xlsfonts that the fonts were installed and then
changing TibetanMachineWeb.java to look for them. Because I haven't
tested this yet, a lot of nasty code is tagged 'DLC' and commented
out.
