Short: Esperanto.accent for translator.library 42
Author: Antonio Noguera <zurt@thepentagon.com>
Uploader: Antonio Noguera <zurt@thepentagon.com>
Type: dev/misc
Requires: OS 1.3, 2.x or 3.x, ISO3 fonts and Francesco Devitt's
translator.library v42
Long:
With this file copied into the LOCALE:Accents/ directory your Amiga will be
able to speak in Esperanto (sometimes called Internacia Lingvo or
International Language).
This file will make translator.library v42 speak a bit cowboy-like
(limitation due to the 'unlocalized' narrator.device) but good enough
Esperanto.
The Esperanto has some non-standard symbols which seems garbage characters
when you see them with a LATIN1 font. To see them properly, you need
LATIN3 fonts, and you can find some of them in
AMINET:text/font/ISO3-Literoj.lha
I have 'borrowed' :-) the español.accent created by Juan Carlos Pérez Walls
because:
- Spanish language has a bunch of pronounciation similarities with the
Esperanto.-
- I took these pronounciation rules from an Esperanto course for Spaniards,
and it was easy to adapt mostly of the phonemes.-
- I had no idea of how to start coding it ;) .-
Well, that's all, feel like to send me emails telling how good/bad it is,
suggestions, improvements, etc...
At the present I have founded a department called AKS (Amiga Komputiloj
Sekcio) whose objetives are give support to Esperantist Amiga users. At
the moment there are some things done:
- esperanto.language
- Esperanto translations of some programs (including WB)
- ISO3 bitmap fonts
- esperanto.accent
In a near future I want to do the following:
- ISO3 Compugraphic fonts
- A Esperanto keyboard (Ideas are wanted!!!!! Because I don't know how to
manage to create ONE keyboard for ALL languages. Maybe a patch... which
patches the "^" key...
