ktrans

KTRANS(1)						      General Commands Manual							 KTRANS(1)

NAME

       ktrans - language transliterator

SYNOPSIS

       ktrans

DESCRIPTION

       The  ktrans  program  installs  itself between the keyboard and /dev/cons and transliterates typed letter sequences into characters in lan-
       guages that do not use the Latin character set.	The language is selected by typing a control character:

       ctl-E  return to default English mode (no transliteration).

       ctl-G  Japanese hiragana: interpret lower-case letters as a Hepburn representation of hiragana.	In this mode, typing ctl-T  looks  up  the
	      last `word' in a hiragana-kanji dictionary and replaces it.  Subsequent ctl-T characters cycle through the possibilities.  A word is
	      the longest immediately preceding unbroken string of hiragana characters.

       ctl-K  Japanese katakana.

       ctl-R  Russian: interpret letters as Cyrillic; the transliteration is mostly phonetic, with ' for myagkij-znak (), '' for  tverdyj-znak	()
	      yo for , j for i-kratkaya ().

       ctl-L  Greek.

FILES

       /dev/kbd

SOURCE

       /sys/src/cmd/ktrans

SEE ALSO

       81/2(1)

BUGS

       Considerably more sophistication is required to support ideographic languages properly.

       There is no way to generate the control characters literally.
