The 'ctrl' modmap is different from the other modmaps as it also applies
the built-in Ctrl modifier to the resulting character, even if it was
first modified by the custom modmap.
For example, this will map Ctrl+в to Ctrl+V (not to v):
<ctrl a="в" b="v"/>
This is intended to add keyboard shortcuts in non-latin layouts.
A caveat is that the latin character appears on the keyboard while Ctrl
is activated.
This replaces the switch cases in KeyModifier.java with JSON files, one
for each diacritic.
The number of states increases from 6727 to 7377. The apk size slightly
decreases (around 3kb).
This implements clockwise/anticlockwise circle and round trip gestures
inspired by Messagease.
The circle gestures start after a small threshold to avoid making the
regular swipe too hard to aim.
The gestures do:
- circle: The center symbol with Shift applied, with a fallback on Fn
- round trip: Same as the circle gesture but applied to a side symbol
- anticlockwise circle: Nothing currently. It is intended to be made
configurable per-layout in the future.
The new Gesture class keeps track of what the pointer is doing while it moves
on a key. It replaces the 'selected_direction' integer.
* Hangul support
This works with two new kinds of keys (Hangul_initial and Hangul_medial)
that carry a precomposed hangul syllable and act as modifiers.
The hangul syllables are composed algorithmically.
* Add shift layer to Dubeolsik layout
Due to the modmap, the cache must be cleared when switching layout to or
from a layout that contain a modmap.
This is broken since 3f6b6fd23, which moves the modmap handling into
KeyModifier.
Thanks to the previous commit, a modifier key can now be more complex
than just a KeyValue.Modifier. This allows a more elegant implementation
of the compose key, that could be taken as a base for other features
(eg. unicode hex entry, hangul)
The COMPOSE_PENDING modifier is removed as keys of kind Compose_pending
can act as a modifier. This has the advantage of highlighting the key
that was last pressed in the sequence.
Rules are added to Pointers: Non-special but latchable keys must clear
latches and cannot be locked with a long press. These rules were not
needed before but were intended.
Allow keys of a kind other than Modifier to be a modifier.
This requires writing a compareTo function for KeyValue. Fields are
compared in this order: Kind, value, flags, symbol.
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.
This reverts the Tusinian layout (1af4e45) and instead introduce a new
arabic PC layout with arabic numbers.
Layouts are renamed:
- arab_pc => arab_pc_hindu
- arab_pc_tn => arab_pc
This new attribute is now used instead of 'script' for modifying the
numpad according to the selected layout's script.
If not provided, it defaults to the value of 'script'.
The numeric layout and the optional right hand side numpad are modified
to show the digits belonging to the script used in the current layout.
The numpads are still defined as it was before. The digits are changed
in `modify_numpad` if needed.
Implement the combinations that were previously not possible and were
commented out.
Also remove `apply_dead_char` and `apply_combining` and make all
dead-keys definitions uniform.
Change the API of `KeyModifier.Map_char` to allow returning a string
instead of a single 16 bits char.
This allows to return combining diacritics.
This also gets rid of `apply_map_or_dead_char`, maps can have their own
fallback.
* Add section mark as an extra key in QWERTY-like layouts that don't have it already
* Add dagger (also double dagger) as an extra key in QWERTY-like layouts
`KeyCharacterMap.getDeadChar` seems to not give the expected result on
Android 4.0. This might affect many more dead key combinations that are
not fixed by this commit.
A new option changes the "change_method" into the new
"change_method_prev". It switch to the previously used input method.
A long press on "change_method_prev" sends "change_method".
A new section is added in the settings and existing options are moved.
The 'accent_slash' was missing in the extra keys setting.
Allow to type more latin letters "with oblique stroke" or "with stroke"
that visually have an oblique bar, that were not added to 'accent_bar'.
In Turkish, upper case of 'iı' is 'İI' but Java's toUpperCase will
return 'II'.
To make 'İ' accessible, make it the shift of 'ı'. This has the
inconvenient of swapping i and ı on the keyboard.
