Transliterator Description

A Firefox add-on that (de)transliterate a text. Transliterator (formerly known as ToCyrillic) is a text (de)transliterator and an input mode handler. It allows as-you-type conversion of strings from one alphabet to another, as well as transliteration/detransliteration anywhere within documents.Transliterator is compatible with Firefox, Thunderbird, Seamonkey 2, Sunbird, NVU / KompoZer, Songbird and Instantbird.DetransliterateConvert text from transliteration to the desired alphabet. Useful if, for some reason, you forgot or were unable to use the input mode, or if someone posted on a forum using transliteration and you'd rather not break your eyes on the gobbledygook ;). The detransliteration follows the same mappings as the input mode. Keep in mind that since the rules for transliteration of different languages may be flexible, your mileage with detransliterating arbitrary text will vary. To use this feature, highlight a paragraph of text with the mouse and choose Edit -> Detransliterate from the menu or hit Ctrl+Shift+Q. TransliterateConvert text to the transliteration of its original alphabet. Use this when you do not have the font required for viewing this alphabet, or you need to send this text using the means not compatible with unicode (e.g. console-based e-mail or SMS). Transliteration feature uses the same rules as the input mode and detransliteration, but follows them in inverse order. To use this, highlight some text and choose "Transliterate" from the Edit menu or hit Ctrl+Alt+Shift+Q. Requirements: · Firefox What's New in This Release: · Minor changes to preferences dialog (F2 instead of VK_F2, etc) · Treat backspaces as valid input characters where possible (no reverse mapping) · Phonetic Devanagari (from Anunad Singh) · Russian mapping for German keyboard layout (from Pawel Sirotkin) · Minor change to the default Russian mapping ("eh" is no longer mapped to "э", use e' instead)
