Replace the short video with an animated vector image that shows the
swipe gesture.
This is much lighter and reliable than the mp4 video, which failed to
play on many devices.
Source for the image of the key is in inkscape SVG format in srcs/res
and is converted to an android drawable when needed. The swipe animation
is hand-written.
This allows to add new kinds of keys that need more data without making
KeyValue's footprint bigger for common keys.
This changes the [_symbol] field into [_payload], which holds the same
as the previous field for more common keys but can hold bigger objects
for keys of the new "Complex" kind.
This also adds a complex key: String keys with a symbol different than
the outputted string.
Unit tests are added as the Java language is not helpful in making
robust code.
This allows adding more compose sequences without modifying
en_US_UTF_8_Compose.pre.
This is done by grouping sequences files that should be merged together
into a directory. This also allows moving keysymdef.h into that
directory.
- Removing unused information (names and descriptions) from the Emoji class
- Creating a Gradle task that generates a more efficient res/raw/emojis.txt file from the most recent Unicode standard
- Saving recently used emoji preferences as emoji values rather than names
- Migrating old user preferences to the new system
* Relicense layouts under CC0
Layout definitions are licensed differently from the rest of the
application source code to allow use in other projects related or
unrelated to Unexpected Keyboard.
Some layouts are not re-licensed and their original copyright continues
to apply. The copyright notice is added at the top of the files.

compile.py implements a parser for X11's Compose.pre files. A lot of
code is necessary to interpret character names but thanksfully, the name
of most characters is contained in the file.
The state machine is compiled into two char arrays which unfortunately
requires an expensive initialisation and allocation.
The COMPOSE_PENDING modifier indicate whether a compose sequence is in
progress. The new key of kind Compose_pending sets the current state of
the sequence.
The compose sequences are compiled into a state machine by a python
script into a compact encoding.
The state of the pending compose is determined by the index of a state.
Android 3.0 (API level 11) was released in Feb 2011.
These versions were already unsupported due to unavoidable calls to:
- MotionEvent.getActionMasked() (API 8)
And avoidable calls to:
- SharedPreferences.Editor.putStringSet() (API 11)
This separates the layout definitions from the special layouts
(bottom_row, greekmath) and other unrelated files (method, settings).
This is also a more intuitive location for layouts and make the resource
directory easier to navigate.
Under the hood, layouts are copied back into
build/generated-resources/xml.
