CharEntry 1.6 (Default branch) |
|
|
CharEntry is a tool for inserting non-ASCII
characters into text, with particular emphasis on
linguistic notation. It provides charts of the
consonants, vowels, and diacritics of the
International Phonetic Alphabet as well as a chart
of precomposed accented characters. Clicking on a
character inserts it into a text region, the
contents of which may be saved to a file or copied
and pasted elsewhere. A widget for inserting
characters by Unicode codepoint is also provided.
Furthermore, it is possible to read the definition
of a custom character chart from a file.

Changes:
The widget for inserting characters by code has been modified to work with Tcl/Tk version 8.5. A workaround has been introduced for a bug in the MS Windows implementation of some versions of Tcl/Tk. The use of the Iwidgets library is now optional. Its presence is tested and custom character charts are made available only if it is detected. Upper case A with caron is now represented by the single codepoint rather than the sequence previously used. A single-file executable for MS Windows is now provided.
